About Me

My name is Joseph Kirwa of id 27973471 of Kahoya village. I was born in a family of 5 siblings. I attended Asururiet primary from 1997 to 2004 later joined Samoei boys high school from 2005 to 2008. I later joined Egerton university for my bachelor’s degree in computer science.

Upon completion, i undertook post attachment with Eastern Produce of Kenya where i gained valuable hands on experience in my area of expertise. I am currently engaged in soft copyright majoring in cooperate and institutions.

My Business

I am engaged in soft copy cooperate where i write and supply erp systems to learning institutions and coperate world. In doing so i maintain and repair computer accessories in the respective institutions and offer advice on the same.

Lately i have ventured into supply of branded and new computers to my clients since i saw the need for a reliable dealer due to upsurging demand based on the digitization of our institutions here in kenya. However, due to my financial constraints, i haven't been able to meet the demand and hence saw the need to reach out to a credit facility. Zidisha proved to be a flexible institution to me.

I am hoping to one day be part of this remarkable institution that is elevating livelihoods, something that our local banks shy away from by imposing exorbitant interest rates.

A look at your services gives me hope that there exists an institutions tailor made for young people like me with an ambition, vision and commitment but lacking in resources to implement the same. In the view of the same i am looking forward to being one of your borrowers in your institution with a view of building an excellent borrower relationship with you while establishing my business to elevate my livelihood and that of my family and community at large.

Loan Proposal

I am here to indulge you in my next business plan of starting a poultry farm for indigenous hens. I have engaged two employees and a local veterinary who will provide necessary support as i embark on empowering my local community in my pursuit to feed my countrymen with safe and affordable source of proteins. This venture will enable me recruit more employees and diversify as i create another stream of income and help in my contribution to the economy of my beloved country. Thank you in advance.

    Hello Zidisha team?
    I have been receiving above email for sometimes now and am left wondering if my payments are not reflecting on your end? Last week alone for sure I paid ksh 1000 and yet I have been told my last payment was made February. I am struggling to fulfill my end of the bargain and the least you can do is update my payments accurately and even allow my adjustment to reflect what is my capacity because I always access limited time to repay adjusted amount the next notification will indicate an abnormal amount. I will appreciate if my 30% or thereabout payments be appreciated because as low as my payments are I am still committed to repaying my debt fully. Thanks in advance.
