Hi lenders, i want to take this time to thank you so much for funding me.The funding has helped me alot and has really changed my life. As i am writing this, i want to happily say that my project has really grown and has sorted my food problem. I am having alot of white meat which serves as source of food to me and my family.

take this opportunity to greet you all ,zidisha team ,dear lenders and members. Than you for your unending support of my small business farm.I have invested a lot in my business through your support and am glad to repay my final amount of the previous loan. it has really put a great positve impact in my business.
I bought two young bulls,put a partitioning grazing field and also bought their feeds. Am thankful and will put more effort in my business ,Thank you and God bless you all.

Let me take this opportunity to thank all my lenders who have enabled me to rejuvenate my business once more. Immediately after purchasing the laptop, I'm getting more and more steady in business growth . I was down, not able to access small loans in micro-credit or banking institutions for lack of a land title deed and motor vehicle logbook, but, Zidisha looks at trust building, which is a rare approach in Kenya. At Zidisha, your novel business idea and fidelity you create among lenders becomes your security. This approach will empower many young people who have no security, but, have been locked out of accessing loans in Kenya. Keep it up Zidisha! you've given me a lease of life.

Thank you for your loan that i received it has helped me to expand my retail shop. am really really happy my earnings have increased by 25%
i used my earnings to expand my shop, my family and friends are happy and likes what i am doing . I am working hard to clear the balance so that i borrow another money. thanks and God bless you and add you more.

i thank the lenders for the loan now iam able to work without stress because i am able to buy stock of kn eating threads of different coulors and sizes so i do not have to send people everyday and also i use less more and make good profit thanks zidisha for good work.

I am very much grateful to Zidisha and to all lenders who together makes Zidisha a happy family to be with. Again , thank you for funding my loan on time. With this loan, I will be able to buy new sets of wheel covers to sell. Most cars in my town doesn't have wheel covers. As a result, most car owners travel far distances with the sole aim of buying wheel covers to be fixed in their cars. With these items available in my shop, I will surely move my business to higher lever with grater income since many will come to buy from me.

Am Nketia i thank you for giving me this loan it has helped me increased my profit margin by 30gh cedi to 40gh cedi. It has also increased my product from 300 pair of shoes to 350 pairpairs of shoes .the loan has helped improve my standard of living which even help me take care of my younger siblings my late father left behind. Thanks

Thank you once again for your support. In the next two weeks I should be finishing my first Zidisha loan. I wish to ask for a second loan almost immediately am through with my first one. My Son Perez is meant to be starting his primary school education early next year. Our public education system in Kenya is currently in bad shape although plans are underway to review the whole system by the Government. To ensure that the boy gets a good foundation in life as far as schooling is concerned, I wish to enroll him in a private learning institution for the first formative years then maybe enroll him in the public system later when he is more mature.

To prepare adequately for this transition I will be seeking Zidisha's help in my second loan application.

Thank you all in advance to my prospective financiers.
