About Me

I am 47 years - married. My husband and I worked in the private sector for 25 years. We have 2 children in the university. First born studying Medicine - 5th year parallel. Second born studying Environmental Science - 1st year. Third born waiting to join secondary school of which the fees is not less than Kshs. 60,000 a year. I have been going for bank loans all through. They are very heavy thus opting for the better option of Zidisha. To reduce my burden. It has not been easy and I want to see my kids have a better future.

My Business

I am a risk taker. I join friends in small businesses like baking cakes, selling tomatoes, onion and selling to supermarkets and small shops in my town. I do liquid soap supply to friends. Keeping poultry. I have bought a plot with 5 incomplete house but still generate an income. Trying out fishpond at the country side. This is how I always try to get an income of Kshs. 60,000 a month for my own upkeep and paying fees loans. I am sure with a loan from you my life would be affordable abit. Because it is a nightmare.

Loan Proposal

Being this Christmas time, I would use the cash to get a few weeks old chicken so that I can sell during Christmas. If not I can bake cakes and supply to the small shops in my town. The profit would save for fee as I refund the loan and move to the next level.

    Please contact Zidisha and ask them to reduce your installments to a more manageable amount for a while. That is better than letting yourself get behind with your payments, which can make it harder to get a loan in the future.
    God bless you,
    Wendy

    Happy New Year, Mildred, and I'm very sorry about the loss of your relative. I hope the body oil sells well - is it perfumed? Best wishes, Isabella

    Happy new year all.

    Sorry for the delay in payments. As I had mentioned I lost a relative in December, 2015 and at the moment we have back to school issue. I am still not settled but I would say I am using the loan well. This weekend I will be making body oil in small quantities to sell to the small kiosks around my area. I trust this will help me do another loan repayment promptly.

    Kindly accept my apology I will be making payment on 16.01.2016 for the 2 weeks.

    Have a blessed day
