Hellen · Nairobi, Kenya

Sep 1, 2015

This is to inform you that i'm very grateful. I received my loan and I've increased my stock in form of adding more materials and other accessories. since i used to rely solely on customers' stock, i can now boast of a variety of my own since customers can now come to choose from my variety. I am optimistic my sales will increase since now i have variety from which my customers can choose from. I'm giving myself one month from which I'll have realised a difference in form of sales and other achievements. During school holidays, children are all over as in they are up and about. The environment is more noisy because they have all activities going on as in competition in all sorts! Bonding is also essential, as that's the time one can get to know more about the children's well being and shortcomings! They are now back to school. Hoping to keep you posted on all developments!!

Zidisha has inspired me to belief that I can achieve all my dreams. Initially, I could not afford to repay an installment of $5 per week consistently with ease. Zidisha funding has changed the story. I now envision to be a proprietor of a national/ regional transport company one day. The strategy of reaching this goal is starting by saving part of the profit I get from my current business and requesting my Zidisha lenders for additional funding. I intend to start small in a few months. Your continuous support is requested. Thank you.
