God will Bless you abundantly.
I am very grateful to Zidisha for helping me to reach my goal of buying a baking oven which is faster than the traditional stove that I have been using. It will help me to make more cakes in a shorter time which will increase the profits which will go a long way in helping the needy people in the community that I work with.
I made a payment today, thanks to my lenders, work is still going on normal,
Below are pictures of water produced this morning. I just wants to thank my cherish lenders so much for the loan, its doing much for me in my business
I am glad to report the stocks I bought with the Zidisha loan have done very well and about 60% is sold, I have used part of the money to repay my loan installment and the rest I will re-invest by getting more stocks next week to grow my inventory.
To all my lenders,
Many thanks for the loan assistance, I will buy 1,233 Kg of yellow beans @ Usd 0.803/kg which will cost about Usd 990.
The seling price of 1,233kg @ Usd1.14/kg = Usd1,405.62.
This gives a profit of Usd 415.62 per each delivery . With a minimum of 2 deliveries per month, will enable me service the loan, pay overheads, bills and save.
This loan will be the begining of my journey up the ladder. I now have the ability to keep my order to supply to the local supermarket.
With time I will be able to service the order that stands at 50,000kg per month because Rome was not built in one day.
Thank you for giving me the oppourtunity to make my ends meet.
Again I thank you.
Yes!
I am just waiting for its disbursement so I can buy my new umbrella. My heart is filled with joy.
I remain appreciative to My Lenders( Margaret ) and the Zidisha Team for the support.

In many campgrounds in Canada, there is concern about food leftovers attracting animals which could potentially be dangerous, and which might become too used to scavenging from campgrounds to survive as a healthy wild animal, so there are many variants on the "bear-safe" garbage can.
For the first time I saw a specifically set up place to dump water after using it to wash dishes, to keep things sanitary and again, to reduce attractants to animals. In a lot of campgrounds it's just expected that you will find a drain somewhere - in the wash block or under a water tap, perhaps, but at this second campsite in a national park, there is no modern plumbing, it's a fairly new park in a fairly remote area, and they clearly thought about the dishwater problem and asked actual campers what to do about it. This park is amazing, in an area that was broken up by ranches and farms about a hundred and ten years ago, and then put back together again as it's a tough place to raise food profitably. (It's fairly dry, far away from markets, and then it gets very very cold in the winter.) I really liked being able to see what this land would have looked like before being settled by farmers. It's not exactly like it would have been, of course, because it's really impossible to recreate the past, but I felt like I was getting a fairly accurate impression of wild prairie badlands.
Hello! I'm glad that you're almost completed your office building.
I went on holiday for the first two weeks of August, and took some photos that you might be interested in. The first one that I think I am attaching right now, is of a campsite where the managers created privacy for the sites by mounding earth and growing tall grass on the mounds between the tent/RV sites.
Also I include a photo of the shower building, which I was surprised to discover was solar heated. And the view across a little lake a short walk from this campground.
With this loan I will purchase a laptop for my social media marketing business for the purpose of growth.
It will be key in helping me scale the business and employ another young man who assist in that aspect.
I would like to thank Paul and Craig for the loan and also thank you guys for believing in my business and for according me an opportunity to grow it. Its a dream coming true one day at I time.
I really thank the zidisha organization for the loan that will enable me purchase a motorbike which will help me transporting the retail commodities in the shop. Thank you and God bless you really appreciate your help thanks again.
This is my second loan from Zidisha. The first loan went a long way in assisting me to add new items in my boutique and salon which I previously did not have. This included shoes, hair accessories and hair chemicals.
My profits shot up and I was able to repay my loan earlier than anticipated. With my increased earnings, I also joined a group for youthful women in development which we discuss development issues.
I have attached a photo of the potatoes almost ready for harvesting in 2 weeks time. Thanks and may God bless for giving me seed capital for the project potatoes.
Wit the first loan i was able to buy more timber. With the timber I was able to meet the needs of my customers, the different types of timber gave my customers a more variety of material to choose from for their furniture.
I was able to make profits of $200. Thanks so much zidisha for your continued support.
