The project I have been working on had many challenges as funding is always an issue. But in business you have to be aggressive to succeed. I have been able to acquire two shops which comes with two purifier machines which are expensive to buy and maintain. Also have been able to stable customers which constant benefits and also 3 permanent employees. With zidisha I have a reason to smile and look forward.

Thank you everyone for funding my current project. I will use the funds to buy fertilizers for my tea plantation. The yield will grow hence employ more people to harvest and generate more income as I produce quality tea for consumption. Thank you once again.

The funding I got previously had a very powerful result. I used it to restock vegetables and fruits, which made more than double the profits. I was able to get them directly from the farm, as opposed to the past when I relied on suppliers. I'm hopeful for the next funding.

Hello my supporters, as per my project description I started with three cows one male and two female, with the last funding I was able to add another dairy cow, so far this is a greater archievements my milk production business will increase generating more income than before. The profit I have been generating through my dairy business I have been channeling to other projects like the farm creating more job opportunity to my community since I have been also producing other crops like cerials in larger quantity and ferry them to the markert. Instead of these people walking long distance to other neighbouring community looking for jobs, since there is no realiable income generating opportunities within, I have made some of them rely on my farm work generating them daily income. Thanks to my supporters and there entire Zidisha team for this milestone..!comment image

Beyond the metrics, this project changed my life. Before, I was working on the idea alone in my spare hours, and was hopeless at the moment. Seeing this community rally behind the vision gave me the confidence to take my boutique to the next level. Navigating, the ups and downs of business taught me resilience, project management, and above all the power of this incredible community. I am living the life I once dreamt of. Thank you for taking a chance on me.

For over 10 year now, i had been running a money banking business with Githunguri in Utawala. Through the business, i support residents especially fellow business people in depositing and withdrawing money without having to travel all the way to the banks. I run an Mpesa till and banking agents for the main banks in Kenya namely Equity, Kenya Commercial bank , Cooperative Bank of Kenya and Family Bank of Kenya. With the funding i got from the lenders, i was able to stabilize float such that whenever a customer needed to deposit or withdraw money, i always had either liquid cash or i had it in my account for the purpose of depositing. This ultimately build trust with my customers which eventually increases the number of transactions and commission i get at the end of the month. The loan was brought a positive change in my life and that of my family
