I used the last loan to buy a photo printing machine which is now operating well. Now I want to extend my business,I have been constructing an iron sheet walls construction which will finally cost 80,000. I have already built the best part of it which costed Ksh 50,000 after which I stopped due to lack of money. What remains is the roofing,painting and the floor. This building will cost me 4000 less than what a rented building could cost. I am planning to extend my computer services businesses to that corner of the town. In this place hope after five months time it will increase my net income by 15000 per month and put me in a position that I will be able to employ one more person who will earn her living there. By the time being I will be paying my loan with the already established photo studio. comment image

Actually, I am still here - my trip has been delayed as my travel partner has a medical issue they have to deal with. It is not serious, but they have to wait for a few appointments before it can be solved. So, I am still at home, waiting. Now it is probably going to be July before we can go. This is too bad as it will be much busier since school will be out, but it can't be helped. I saw some backpacking/camping people in town today, with their tents on their backs, looking for a place to stay the night. Lots of young people come to town during the summer to work on the orchards around here, and they have a hard time finding cheap places to stay. It's against the law for them to tent in the public parks, but sometimes they do it anyway. I don't mind, if they are really here working, I think they should be allowed.

First and foremost, I would like to sincerely thank all my lender for trusting me and granting me a chance to develop myself economically. Sincerely speaking, Zidisha loans has been of great importance/ help to me unlike the other Micro finance institutions which I used to borrow money from earlier. Zidisha loans have been very flexible to me and my business because it has been giving a chance to balance between loan repayment, my business and family. I'm happy that I have completed my previous loan which has helped me change the face of my business. I had just moved to a new shop which was big and required restocking; with the help of Zidisha loan, I managed to stock my shop and now I am reaping the fruits of Zidisha loan. Thank you zidisha and long live my zidisha lenders. comment image

It is my sincere believe that zidisha organization is on the verge of ensuring that those who are enterprising but not able to access funding through the normal banking system shall and will always flourish with their funding but only on one condition that loans are repaid on time. I wish to be a beneficiary to this zidisha cause by ensuring all payments are either made on time or before due period. Just like I have manage to pay on time I shall be able to achieve the next repayments on or before schedule.
