Happy African Union (AU) day to all African and Zidisha Team as a whole. It has been a tremendous change in my business since I was given the loan from my lenders. Previously I've not been able to order for bigger size of fish but with the loan I was able to order for bigger sizes. And this has boosted my market because many are those who wish for bigger Tilapia fish. Big thanks to Zidisha and most specially to Mr Paul Buchheit. GOD BLESS US ALL. AMEN!!

Thank you very much for yet another golden chance to take my business and life to another higher level. Now with the $950.00, i am ready to expand my transport business and take it to a totally new and greater level. I will straight away buy a tricycle Piaggio APE ,3 Passengers ''Taxi'' commonly known as (Tuk Tuk) in our local Kenyan language. With this,i will never go unnoticed on it thanks to the trendy colors of its body, the massive and secure roll-bars and the rich standard equipment. Conditions: *Low consumption Diesel fuel *3 Passengers tricycle ''Taxi'' *It can be driven can be driven with a normal driving license. *It is designed for maximum impact with incredibly low running and maintenance costs *The ideal solution in rural and urban areas *Unbeatable for its small dimensions, maneuverability This Taxi once i buy it i will be taking home an income of USD50.00 by evening everyday. I will never again be challenged by bad weather and worry about wind that poses a great threat to my health and that of clients on a motorcycle. I will be going to rest early having made a good money during the day. The 3 Passenger Tricycle is mostly preferred in my place with many making even a higher income. I will build a washroom/toilet for my parent.The one available is in bad condition.I will be making a good installment of repaying your loan.My life will never be the same again. Thank you lenders as you consider funding my next project. I look forward for a favorable response. Thank you and may God bless you abundantly. Charles Muchira Njiru

Halo and Goodmorning, Thank you so much the whole Zidisha fraternity for your confidence in me. Today I start to re-pay my loan and I feel happy and very comfortable knowing soon my kitchen will be complete. The materials arrived early enough but the contracter insisted that we wait for the rains to subside. It is the rainy season here in Kenya and its not friendly I must say. Will be posting pictures once they start even with the foundaton but for now we are all waiting the rains to calm down. Thank you and have a fantastic week.

Hello, lenders and the zidisha group am so thankful for trusting me with the loan that i just finished paying. It helped me pay rent for my new beauty salon and since then my life has been transformed positively because i now have my own salon and am my own manager which has been my wish for a long time. I now spend time with my daughter after she comes from school not like the past two years when i would only see her awake in the morning because i would come late in the night from town and find her asleep. Also with my own salon i get much money than the salary i used to earn so i can buy what i need easily. Am so happy and may God bless you

My tea farm is doing well and I have not had problems with my workers. It is only my chicken business that didn't go well. I have decided to focus on my dairy cattle, tea farm for the moment until I have the financial capacity to invest in other areas of interest such as fish farming and bee keeping. I will share my progress a long the way
