Hello and happy new year my generous lenders iam here to apoogize for being away for so long my business was not doing good that i had to take a break of about 3years but i thank God He has helped me to get back hoping for more blessings this year to soldier on forward thank you and stay blessed
Words can't explain how excited I feel that the loan was funded in one and half-day! this is clear proof of all my lender's belief in what my business is doing and the impact it has on people and the planet.
With this loan, I will continue with the distribution of solar lamps and clean cookstoves to Lundazi so that more families can have clean sources of lighting and cooking.
This will help my business expand in new districts and villages and also impact more households with life-changing products such as solar lamps and clean cookstoves.
I want to thank all of you my lenders for your continued support and always know that together we are transforming lives for the better, one village at a time!
I thank my lenders I recieved K2502 as my loan and i am going to use it for digging a well at my farm so that there is water to drink and for watering my plants.
Francis... love the project! Also great to see your professional communication with your lenders and well thought through social impact business plan. Great video as well! I feel honoured to be able to lend you all that was needed and still open for you to have the loan request fully funded. So glad a saw your project just in time! I've spent time in rural Zambia and Zim so know exactly the problem you are helping to address. So great to see social entrepreneurs like yourself setting a great leadership example. With you every success ... Erik
The Zytonic M organic fertilizer that I bought for use in transplanting my crops.
It is far much efficient, economic and productive as compared to the regular basal fertilizers. In this case, I am going to use 2kg of Zytonic M organic fertilizer worth 1850 KES to grow a whole acre of tomatoes whereas if I'd use the ordinary fertilizers, let's say DAP, I'd have to buy a 50kg bag at 3300 KES.
I was facing some major financial constraints but am now abit stable will continue paying my loan instalments till I see it's completion.The loan was helpful has it assisted me complete my my mum's house upto 80%Am very much grateful for zidisha for it has made me achieve my goal for putting a roof over my mother's head who is a single parent.May God bless each and every lender for your grate support.
I wish to thank my lender for this generosity to help me purchase a variety of seeds for planting. I expect a bigger yield and my earnings will be increased. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this loan I will make use of it to buy fertilisers for my plants. With fertilisers the plants will grow better and the harvest will be better which means also my earnings will improve. Thank you once again.
With the previous loan I was helped successfully I managed to buy a few bags of farming in inputs such as fertilizer and pesticides and my crops are growing very well.To this i really appreciate you my lenders and may God bless you.
I thank you all my wonderful lenders for trusting me with this loan. I will use the loan to buy wooden boxes for tomatoes and the tomatoes will now be packed safley and less damage.
I thank you most sincerely for this loan and for trusting me again. I will use the money to plant ginger for sale. Once I sell i will be able to make good profit because right now ginger is on hot demand, people are using it as a herb in the fight against covid19. So this loan will help me make profit and my finances will be enhanced. Thank you.
The previous loan I got helped me increase my profit by 35% and impacted 120 women in rural villages with solar lights and clean cookstoves. Through this loan, I was able to buy a third motorbike for my solopreneurs and also expand our distribution into a new district of Katete.
The next loan am requesting will help me distribute in Lundazi clean cookstoves that are very important during this period of COVID 19
