From the funds I received, I made a beautiful table that I sold and made two others that I am yet to sell. This business has a great potential and I wish I could get enough funds to build a shade and a nice small warehouse where I can take clean images of my products.

I say thank you alot for all the members who funded my project and made it possible for me to achieve my goal.
I'll use the funds to buy spinach and tomato seeds after which I'll plant them in a nursery before transplanting them to my well prepared farm.
This is a great milestone in my farming project.

Kids in my neighborhood are now calling me 'Dada Kaimati'. loosely translated, that is 'The Croissant Lady'. I am mastering the craft and in my small ways, running with the enterprise. In a day, I make about $4 in sales and earn a profit of $ 0.8. I am still not factoring in my salary. That would reduce the profits I earn.

I am thankfully not paying rent or electricity, so my overhead costs appear less for now. I believe the future will be bright.

Zidisha has been of great help to my small cyber café business where i have been able to upgrade my equipment's and now am in a position to serve customers better.
