Hi Kevin, congratulations on getting your loan! I am new to Zidisha and just started offering loans. Your application looked interesting because you study journalism and support yourself with farm work. I like people who have that kind of initiative and journalism is an interesting field with so much happening in your world. I wonder what kind of novels you like to read. Please let me know a bit more about your goals in life. Just some background on myself: I was born in Germany, immigrated to Canada when I was 26 to study computer science and then worked all my life in software and ran two software companies. For the last 10 years I have been retired and spent my free time to mentor small companies with business problems. This has been very interesting and rewarding. I am now spending a bit of money to help people like you to get educated and to position themselves for a successful career. I wish you all the best, Bruno

The loan I took really assisted me so much.I added the amount to my savings and bought a blow dryer to serve more clients in my Salon. The blow driers that existed before were not enough since clients could queue. The loan assisted me to buy one more blow drier and it really promoted my business. Thank you so much lenders and Zidisha at large.
