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.

Hello lenders, After receiving my first loan i boosted my business,i have supported my mother,buying food and catering for her. Below is the exact items i bought with the loan; I bought maize floor one sack at a cost of USD 26.00. Also i added Beans and Green grams at a cost of USD,11.00 and USD,13.00 respectively. I added more Milk at a cost of USD 3.00 . This has been giving me a lot of profit because these products are commonly fast moving than any other since they are food products. My customers have been assured of getting the stock of what they need at all the time. My profit increased considerably from the previous $20.00 to 30.00 per day. This has gone towards changing my life and that of people whom i support like my mother.I have been giving back to the society through our church donation to less fortunate in our society like orphans.I also successfully managed to repay your loan with the profit. Thank you very much Lenders and Zidisha Community.

Hi lenders ! I just wanted to take a minute today to let you all know what a fantastic job you are doing for me and other people with financial needs like me. When I first started here was having a lot of financial problems. and sales were poor. Honestly I was a little worried about what I had gotten myself into but my business has since grown through your help. Anyway I just wanted to let you all know that I really appreciate your dedication to helping people grow financially.
