Hallo. Thanks to the lenders for your support. I received the loan of 4565 KES which will go a long way to boost my filming and freelance media business. I will pay for monthly internet to keep in touch with key clients and use the rest for business errands. The main goal is to venture in agri-business and while the starting loan amount is not enough to take me there yet, buy a water pump, it is a step towards the right direction. Thanks
On my first loan, I was able to increase my stock of pharmaceutical drugs. As a result I was able to sell more and managed to buy a plot. I now intend to build my small house so that I can safe more money
Thanks to Zidisha Lending Group I was given a Loan of 100$ which I was able to start my mushroom farm. I used the money to buy sawdust and spawn as well as topped up some for other requirements like buying the raw material for making the bleach.
So far the germination has been well with a few moulds here and there which i removed to avoid contamination of the rest of the crop thus I still will be able to make a good profit as I had predicted. The little that I have been able to sell so far has really gone a long way to settle my loan cost and other needs as well as savings and I am now sure to expand the size of my crop.
Thanks to the Zidisha lending community I am able to increase my income by 40% from the previous and I am very grateful for you supporting me through this loan.
Abundant blessings back at you as well.
Dear Zidisha community and esteemed lenders,
I am happy to make it known to you that my business has shown real signs of growth as I continue utilizing the disbursed loan to increase my stock. As depicted by the attached photo, I can now afford to purchase maize flour, wheat flour, and cooking oil in bulk as compared to previously. My customers are happier to get most of the food items they want from my shop as this has saved them the hustle of moving from one shop to another. Moreover, my ability to order things in bulk has enabled me to offer discounts to my loyal customers who are happy to support my young business. Thank you all for having confidence and trust in me that I can use the loan to make a change in my life and the lives of my customers. I look forward to even getting more returns and reciprocating by repaying the loan on time.

Part of money i am using to pay school fees for our daughter who is in pre-unit class and i am optimistic that before they close in April i'll have cleared all the school fees (photo posted). During my free time i spend it working in our small farm (photo posted) where i have planted cassava, sweet potatoes, arrow roots, potatoes, tomatoes, cow peas, beans, maize, peas, tomatoes, sukuma wiki, spinach to mention a few so that i can cut cost on food expenses and use that money to buy pesticides, manure, fertilizer, seedlings for the small farm & expanding my poshomill /cereals business. I am also concentrating with other home improvements. My family is happy because Zidisha is truly changing people's life.
I thank my lenders for the great support offered me.I was able to raise a new structure for my poultry farm which accommodates about 200 chicks.With this am able to employ another person who helps in my farm.I hope to extend my farm more with this new loan am raising by buying more feeds and drugs to boost my farm
I wish to thank Zidisha for the last loan which i used to purchase a new laminating machine for my business. This enabled me diversify my services offering my clients more value under one roof. My earnings improved by 11% as a result of the new machine.
I owe Lenders great thanks for loaning to me when ever the need arises. I cannot in any way neglect Zidisha management for creating a platform to link Borrowers and Lenders .You have really impacted my family, my business and my community as well. I was able to use the loan you gave me wisely and for that matter there is major improvement in my business and my repayment. I also place an order for my brand new impression machine from a shop in Accra- Ghana and it arrived early February 2015. I can now print material in quantity and quality.

Hi Zidisha friends and supporters, i really thank you for the loan. I used it to increase my salon stock. This made a big difference because apart from weaving and hair dressing i sell hair pieces, some cosmetics and other beauty items. The earning though fluctuating have increased from Ksh 600 per day to upto Ksh 1800 per day. I have used some of the increases in boosting another grocery business of cereals that i started which also has some household items. Some little money i have used to purchase Zuku digital set for my family house and my children are very happy because they can watch educative programs now. Neighbors children come to watch and share the glory of Zidisha. Very soon will post photos. But record keeping also is a good practice that has really helped me and encourage other members to keeps good business records. Soon I will recommend some business friends to join Zidisha family. Thank you.

Hello my lenders. I feel like I should call you my business partners, for you helped me scratch where i wanted scratched with your $50 soft loan. I undertook to refund the money in 1 month which i am on course. I did buy a refurbished dell laptop for $350, and I swear, the machine has helped me monitor my academic essay writing job with a reliable machine in-terms of power and efficiency. This has finally helped me minimize the orders that were cancelled I due to lateness. the profit am making has increased by $40 monthly and am doing my savings to establish a cyber cafe with several desktop computers, where I will train other graduate how to do academic essay writing.
Doing my work in time has given me ample free time to share with my family, since my only daughter Elsie is being weaned and I love doing it.
To me it’s just a dream going for a holiday, I have a dream holiday venue which is a dream holiday hotel which is 4 Km from home- Merica Hotel. At the moment I cannot afford it but i hope by the end of the year my business will gift me with that dream. It’s my humble wish. I love that place, I love the ambiance. Taking my sweet wife Janelle there for a night of two will be a dream come true.
I have not yet partitioned my shop dear lenders but i finally got a photoman to take the photos of me shaving clients inside a portion of my shop.I plan to partition it within two or three weeks and buy a mirror.
Words are not enough to express just how grateful I am for the support from my lenders and the entire Zidisha team. May you all be blessed for the big hearts you have.
I am now planning to go purchase the three computers and once I have assembled them I will take a photo to update you.
I would like to thank all my lenders for giving me this opportunity as loan to impact several lives.
For sometime now I haven't been able to update you on what's happening because my phone got faulty.
I went to the villages about three weeks ago. They are so happy to recieve help from this opportunity you've given them. Now they can live their lives very comfortable knowing their produce would be sent to the market for sale.
A constant driver has been set to visit the village every fortnight to help them convey their produce for sale in the town market.
I also got a very young and aspiring high school lever who is now the leader in charge of sales and revenue. He's very good and also he plans on furthering school with the little money he makes out of it.
I pray I get time in my busy schedule to visit the villages soon and update you with pictures.
Thank you all once again and I promise your commitment has gone a long way to help many vulnerable people out here.

Hi lender, thanks a lot with the help of venture capital loans that I use to buy bamboo to manufacture Traditional Fish Capture Device (traps), Bubu orders already in the process of manufacture to customer needs, especially orders from the Department of Marine and Fisheries.
It is great to have such a good organization as Zidisha. I believe many people like me who may not have access to finances benefit alot. I managed to buy the desktop switch. Even though at the start it was quite challenging as some of my machines like printer and photocopier were blown up by faulty electricity, I am now coming to my feet. I wish I could meet the worthy contributors to my cause for the good heart.

At the moment I cannot afford it but i hope by the end of the year my business will gift me with that dream. It’s my humble wish. I love that place, I love the ambiance. Taking my sweet wife Janelle there for a night of two will be a dream come true.

Tricycle to convey farm produce to the central market
I would like to thank all my lenders for giving me this opportunity as loan to impact several lives.
For sometime now I haven't been able to update you on what's happening because my phone got faulty.
I went to the villages about three weeks ago. They are so happy to recieve help from this opportunity you've given them. Now they can live their lives very comfortable knowing their produce would be sent to the market for sale.
A constant driver has been set to visit the village every fortnight to help them convey their produce for sale in the town market.
I also got a very young and aspiring high school lever who is now the leader in charge of sales and revenue. He's very good and also he plans on furthering school with the little money he makes out of it.
I pray I get time in my busy schedule to visit the villages soon and update you with pictures.
Thank you all once again and I promise your commitment has gone a long way to help many vulnerable people out here.

Surgery fee
Hello, all my lenders, I apologies for not posting comments for a while; just as I had promised I have been very busy in the farm doing the work by self to cut down on cost. I just concluded top dressing the tomatoes this night set to rise very early to put water the rest of the day. I also bought pesticides and foliars plus topdressing fertilizer which i already applied on the french beans. By Gods grace the french beans are expected to be ready for first picking this Friday. Wanted to attach photos but ran short of time to take some next time i will post them. Thank you for on time help.

Stocks and security enhancement
Greetings Friends. I have been able to purchase a new cage for the 6Kilogrames cylinders for my shop although sales have been low in the last three months due to financial issues facing customers. I have tried to invest in branding and more display and i intend to add more Six Kilograms cylinders which seems to be hot cake in Town. I will also be able to make Fliers to distribute to increase awareness of the shop.

Inventory of rice, maize flour and sugar for my retail shop
THE GRAND DIFFERENCE:
If you gave the money to buy food, I would remain poor. When you give me the money to invest , keep the returns and repay the capital, I am on my way to financial freedom.
Lenders and the entire Zidisha Team, thank you for providing me with the seed. Soon you will see a forest out of it because the rule of multiplication shall apply in my business.
Thank you all and God of heaven and earth bless you.

New desktop switch for my cyber cafe
It is great to have such a good organization as Zidisha. I believe many people like me who may not have access to finances benefit alot. I managed to buy the desktop switch. Even though at the start it was quite challenging as some of my machines like printer and photocopier were blown up by faulty electricity, I am now coming to my feet. I wish I could meet the worthy contributors to my cause for the good heart.
