Hi Zidisha Team and lenders, I am very happy today 8/8/2016 to let you know that my loan has been 100% funded. This took less time than I had anticipated and I am extremely grateful. I will add my stock for clothings immediately so that my customers will have a variety to choose from. This will make my clothing store a large business than previous was and in turn my profits will go up. The additional money from the project will be used to repay my Zidisha loan and the rest for expansion. God will surely reward all of you that took the courage to trust in my project and I promise you that I will in turn honour to repay on time. Kind regards, Joseph.

Dear lenders, I am very grateful for the first loan. The loan granted me has changed my life in a positive way. I used the loan to purchase lots of second hand and brand new cloths into my mini boutique. This therefore has increased my customer base. The loan therefore helped increase my profit margin by 65 to 75%. It has also increased my start-up capital by $88. It also helped me take good care my kids.

Hi lenders, I am good and doing my business well. After receiving the loan I immediately started to improve the comfort of my livestock by building a new modern Cow shed which was the main project. I bought 18 iron sheets all at a cost of $115.00. I also bought 10Kg of nails of various inches at a cost of $18.00. In addition also i bought 3 bags of cement at $15.00, ballast coat $12.00 & sand at $5.00 respectively. I also bought different sizes and inches of wood at a cost of $30.00 This changed even on the outcome of the products hygiene. The new cow shed has reduce d infection brought by dirty condition where cows sleep and do the milking. This has reduced the chances of contaminating the milk and the cows will be eating clean food and sleep comfortably. Efficiency is also an opportunity coming with the advantage of my next loan; my worker no longer move cattle to different cleaner location for milking therefore saving time. I expected the income of my business to increase any time from now to hit 350.00 per month as projected. This will be a great and amazing achievement. Thank you.

Bonjour, chère Laurie, Je viens de parcourir rapidement vos pages d'information et je suis très impressionné par la richesse contenue. En lisant, je retrouvais, peu à peu, les plus belles années de ma vie, quand je lisais beaucoup et, Dieu sait, que nos lectures se ressemblent beaucoup. Longtemps, j'ai été un disiciple de M. Gandhi, M. Luther King, et Bob Marley. Je suis sûr que je mettrais plusieurs mois pour essayer de lire toutes les pensées contenues dans vos pages. Merci. Une autre chose qui m'impressionne c'est votre regard d'aigle, précis et puissant, qui semble aller au fond de la chose regardée. Mes compliments, chère amie; vous êtes belle. Dernière mais pas moins, en disant "quand j'avais 55 ans", vous parlez de qui? Moi, j'ai 56 ans et je ne peux croire que tu aurais mon age, presque. Je pense avoir trouvé une personne exceptionnelle. Hello, dear Laurie, I just quickly browsed your pages of information and I am very impressed by the contained richness. In reading, I found, little by little, the best years of my life, when I read a lot, and God knows, that our readings are very similar. For a long time, I was a disiciple of Mr. Gandhi, Mr. Luther King, and Bob Marley. I am sure that I could spend several months trying to read all the thoughts contained in your pages. Thank you. Another thing that impresses me is your eagle eye, precise and powerful, that seems to go to the heart of the thing considered. My compliments, dear friend; you are beautiful. Last but not least, in saying, "when I was 55," you speak of whom? I am 56 years old and I can't believe that you would be almost my age. I think I found an exceptional person.
