I must be grateful to my lenders for making my job easier for me with virtually no interest on my loan and allowing me to pay in my own pace. I feel relaxed in my job. In fact there is no pressure on me paying my loan. I pray for Zidisha to live long so that we the poor make it progressively to the top. My hair dressing saloon looks more attractive than before. The new hair dryer I bought with Zidisha loan have made my work easy and not forgetting the handryer have increased my pony style. I thank my lenders grately for their massive support.

Thanks to God for today I was able to make good sales of my goods (roasted peanuts) and I dedicated all my profits to paying the loan. I was able to pay KES 1800 which have never paid at once before. The peanut business has supported my garden project very well because for it was not of it I would not be paying the loan on time. I look forward on making more investments. Thank you Zidisha for supplementing my initial capital in all my businesses. May God bless you all. Last but not the least,thank you my lenders and may God increase your capital to fund more loans. You have golden hearts. I wish you existed the time I schooled. I would have not gone through such tough challenges. I almost dropped out of school. Bye. Am so excited.comment imagecomment image

Thanks my lenders for your support. l used part of the loan to pay hostel fee, pay research fee, pay departmental dues buy literature books, exercise books and make photocopies. Indeed, this loan has really helped me to learn very hard because l was able to cater for my school expenses immediately classes started, since l didn't encounter any financial constraints learning became easier for me and my academic performance really improved. While am in school my mother is coping seriously with business and she is going to pay the rest of my loan. I'm writing examination and very soon l will go home to assist my mother to run the business when we vacate.
