I was raised in ahousehold of farmers. I am humble and kind hearted person. Currently my friends and I are teaming up so that we can be able to start a foundation that will be helping the less previlaged in our society. Our land has a culture of traditional dances too. My hobby is travelling and swimming.

My Business

I am a farmer. I grow different types of crops on my farm. This is important because at the end of the harvest season, it enables me contribute to the food basket and economically through sale of my produce. I chose this kind of business because i have passion for it. My running costs is mainly pestcides and fertilizer for my crops.My revenue is $200 monthly. I use the profits for home improvement and fees payment.

Loan Proposal

I need to buy 1 bag of 50kgs Fertilizer worth $15. It will be of help in enriching my gardens soil fertility, thus reaping more produce from the vegetables I grow. I expect my produce to increase by 20% compared to last season which I didn't top dress hence more income from the sales. ($50)

    I will use the loan amount to purchase fertilizer for top dressing and pesticide to spray the crops ($100). The fertilizer will be helpful because I will use it to topdress the crops,this will make them healthy and increase the harvest quantity come harvest time.
    The pesticides will be helpful in keeping away the pests that are likely to attack and destroy my crops. This will keep them growing and healthy.
    Thank you lenders.

    I will use the loan to plaugh and plant a piece of land (half an acre) that I have been leased to $30. This is a positive growth in my business and i intend to start planting vegetables(kales and cabbage) on it.
    This will greatly improve my monthly revenue once the vegetables are ready for harvest.
    Thank you lenders

    Thanks to the Zidisha loan, I was able to buy fertilizer and applied on my soil. With the ongoing rains, my crops are looking so healthy and I expect a bumper harvest once they are ready for reaping.
    Right now we are enjoying Easter holidays with my family.
