Dear lenders your support was very successful to my previous loan or the just ended loan project. I did not have enough stocks and the funds you helped me was able to stock up and customers were very happy to buy their groceries within the neighborhood rather going out into town. Thank you very much and I hope I will once again support me in my new project. Thank so much for your efforts in advance.

Thank you so much for supporting this venture.

These kids are tomorrow's leader and future zidisha members too. January marks the start of a school term and exercise books are an essential part of going back to school.

I intend buy quarry dust for making building blocks.this will help me in building a permanent house. Thank you for your assistance

Acep · Bandung Barat, Indonesia

Jan 4, 2024

Thank you very much for the trust that has been given to me, I will use the funding assistance that has been provided for purchases including additional capital assets such as raw materials in the form of stock of bread, jam and cheese. Then additional stock for packaging includes paper boxes, plastic wrap. With the additional capital provided, it really helps to develop the business because at the moment I am constrained by capital to increase stock of goods, so far I have been shopping for limited stock of goods and in the end a lot of time is wasted because the turnover of goods is disrupted by a shortage of stock (when there are events it often happens). the goods run out first) I am very grateful to the funders and I promise to maintain the commitment and trust that has been given, hopefully this can provide positive things. May the donors be given health and abundant sustenance by GOD/ALLAH SWT. Once again, thank you very much and hopefully we can help each other and work together in the future. Thank you

Prices of stuff sky rocketed and ordinary loans wete unaffordable. I am forever grateful for Zidisha family because they gave me a cusion that is unmatched. I was able to buy some refurbished mabatis 7@1000 each, nails and barbed wire to repair the coup. The repair took abit long because of the heavy rains which could start very early. The festivities also ate into out time. The place is now ready. I am moving the chics this week after their 2nd vaccine.
