Vehicle for delivering chicken and eggs

Hallo Zidisha family and lenders wherever you are in the world.

I wish to take this opportunity to wish all of you a Happy New Year 2017 and that it has been great been with you in 2016.

It is my hope that we will continue being together as our Zidisha family keeps expanding.

To all lenders, you are the engine that drives Zidisha and I take special consideration to you all for your generous loan that you have continued to entrust to us. Without you, most of our children could not be going to school or having a roof over their heads.

To my fellow borrowers, please let us be responsible in our loan repayment, timely and incase of problems, let us share so that the lenders will know instead of defaulting and hiding. This is to ensure that other deserving people get the opportunity we also got and to make Zidisha self reliant.

Finally, I wish to thank the entire Zidisha administors for the enormous task that they do co-ordinating all the office work despite most of them being part timers and volunteers. Kudos!!!

Happy New Year 2017!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
