Hello,
Thank you for your funding . The funds really helped me. I didn't have enough money to buy a new sheep but when I got your help I added what I had to buy it. Thank you once again.
Dear lenders, this is the current state of my land project. I have uprooted all pea trees and the land is ready for planting. I have dug 2*2 inch holes for maize planting. I am harvesting kales and spinach on daily basis for supply in the nearby hotels. I am trying to connect my house with offgrid solar systems with a small battery and a 12vDC to AC inverter. Hence I can listen to radio music to get informed while I work at the farm. I purchased the inverter from Jumia online shop at a price of Kes 2,000. The battery is part of my water pumping system used for trial, I am yet to buy one for my stereo system.
I received an amount of GHS1,237. I have paid my monthly hostel fees with the loan received, I will make part payment of my school fees for the semester, buy books and stationery items for the semester. I will pay for an IT training courses to enhance my IT skills. Once again I take this opportunity to say thank you to all my lenders. You have no idea how much your help means to me. God richly bless you all for your kindness and generosity.
A loan of $2 helped to diversify the supply of perfumes and I gained new clients with unique tastes, the income from sales increased and I'm confident to open a big store.
I'm an inspiring young entrepreneur from Kisumu city (K). I live with my husband and 15year-old,son.
I do saloon business and also perfume-selling. Sometimes I do get the products from abroad. I really try to put all my efforts into developing the business and plans to open a big store.
My husband works at a local mining company and, a side from his daily work, he also owns coffee-making machines in several places in the city.
In order to diversify the supply of perfumes, I decided to apply for financial assistance. I plan to expand the variety of perfumes. This will help me to gain new customers with unique tastes and increase the income from the business.
I and my husband are risk takers and we try every business opportunity since this will bring better living conditions to our little family. My husband hopes to open a coffee store or a little cafe someday. We both invest all our time and efforts to create a sustainable future for our little one.
Hey lenders, i will use the fund to buy bananas, pumpkin and use the rest to build shed for my storage of those things from rain and sun to prevent them from damage these will improve my earning from 50% to 70% per week. The increased amount can be used to increase stock pick and employ worker to help me,that can to create job for youths, then neighours can get goods nearby without transport then during the holidays I can take my kids out for re freshness. The amount will be used also to pay my rental house and school fees for my children.
The helped me in purchasing a photocopy machine which I use on a daily basis to produce copies of documents for my customers. The sales I have made from it have helped me to pay school fees for my daughter and electricity without any difficulties.

I am very greatful to you my lenders for giving me this awesome opportunity to depend on myself.

My earnings have increased by ten percent as am till new and the my loan limit is low.

I sincerely thank the lenders (
We Not Me, St. Paul, Minnesota, United States) at Zidisha for not only their approval of my dream to own a mobile concrete mixer, but also to support it financially by agreeing to lend me the money, subject to the records, so far totaling $15 USD. I first received $1 fund followed by $14 USD fund as per the loaning criteria put forward by the Zidisha team. While the amount could not fully enable purchase a $1000 USD machine (mobile concrete mixer), I used the money instead to add to my inventory and purchase a medium plate compactor. And I work to service my loan in due time, I also aim at increasing my credit limit so that I can borrow more funds so as to finally purchase this dream concrete product machine.
Thanks Mary, I am happy that all has been going on well even if there have hitches here and there. Beside my business of distribution I am in now in small scale farming where I have two hectares of beans. The beans would be harvested in December. The children are now almost closing for the holidays. They have had a smooth year in learning, thanks to zidisha community.
Things are good since that I have a grocery of tomatoes, cabbages and sweet potato so that is the business I imerged into from selling sugar cane so I want to prosper more by extending it if i get more funds. Thanks a lot lenders.
The loan was for Glico Shamba Fresh Farms increasing productivity. I purchase farm inputs. It has improved my farm operations and increased profit by 14%. This earnings will be for farm improvement, children fees and 10% for charity fund. Our family members are happy from the recovery of my dear wife who had undergone spinal surgery and we thank God that a miracle she is o n her feet!!!!!!!!! We as a family we don't take it for guranteed.
The last loan given, i added stocks of materials to easen my tailoring. this enabled me to work throughout without getting shortages of materials as i had everything in stock. since the economy is not so stable, the movement of sales have been a bit slow though i couldn't miss earning at least 500/=. As i mentioned earlier, i engaged one employee who has been of assistance in running errands like deliveries on time thus creating employment. my family has been very supportive and this has made the business run smoothly. none of my children has been sent back home for lack of school fees. this business enable me pay for my child's educational trip which was required within a short notice period. it has really boosted her self esteem as she didnt expect to go for the trip!
I purchased 31 seedlings of tree. Which my plan is to plant more than 2000 between this year and next year. With a long term invested on timber. It has made a different that in ten years to come I will be able to have timber for selling and I will make profit which will help me to settle in other ventures of business as a stepping stone. It is a long term investment.
My children are doing well in school. Two of the are going to finish their end of year exam tomorrow and they will be in holiday for two monthes. The elder one is pursuing his master degree. I am happy for them. In my neighour people are always busy with there daily running of businesses. Currently I don't have a personal picture in my phone and it has an issue of Cd card to enable store information. Next time I will share my picture. I am grateful for support. Thank you.
I qualified for Ksh9,352. I received as terms and conditions applied and since then I have been able to add up to what I had to buy a computer for our DJ. Our DJ was using a computer that operated like a T.V, goes on when power cable is connected and if removed the computer goes off. This would be embarrassing because as music would play and someone touches the connection music would embarrassingly go off.
The computer also had many viral attacks that would disable software's and also eat up space. It was also old and so the purchase of a new computer was very vital.
Thank you zidisha team for ensuring that we have a new computer.
The loan I received helped me to make necessary payments and have full concentration on academic work within the semester. This would not have been possible if not for Zidisha. Zidisha is really transforming lives and I am one of the testimonies of this transformation. I can't thank you all enough for the good work and smiles you put on our faces. God richly bless Zidisha Team, Director Julia and all you lenders.
Team, due to ups and downs i am happy to be back on this platform. Despite the setbacks, i am now on my feet matter projects. i have been privileged to run a poultry project though small, photocopying and printing point as well as starting a small mobile money transfer services M-Pesa. My aim is to clear my first loan on Zidisha in the coming two months to stand a chance of higher credit limit. This will bridge the gap on my working capital to be able to meet my clientele demand of my products and services.
Hi Shena, thanks for your comments. I particularly stated that i am starting a new busisness in a neighbouring estate. This loan intends to purchase equipment for this new business that is smaller compared to the one am running now.This will automatocally include such like fridge or freezer. It is not possible to use one equipment for both busisnesses as they are a little far from each other. The shade is the main eating area and so each business must have one hence for it to attract customers. The businesses are small hence the constant need to grow even if its buying another equipment that i also have. This is just an indication that i have seen the possibilities of growth,thanks.
Thanks to my lenders I was able to purchase the otoscope. Have had a very busy week, or two at that. Was working on a mini-research on Nurse Manager's leadership style and it's impact on staff intention to stay and staff/patient satisfaction. It was stressful but exciting, trying to analysis a data using the SPSS for the first time. I now know that for my final research work I won't have problems analysing data. Hope the past week was productive?
hi guys,am excited to be in this programme,I'd say I've waited all my life...am a paramedic operating a small pharmaceufical sells outlet and I also do routine diagnosis and treatment..that's in town but I also have,like most of us,a rural traditional homestead where I di some subsistence farming..a small setup with fruit garden and food crops and of course some poultry..all not commercial but for food and nutrition...it's my 3rd loan and am hoping to be at loan level 10 or so by Dec...

This loan intends to purchase equipment for this new business that is smaller compared to the one am running now.This will automatocally include such like fridge or freezer. It is not possible to use one equipment for both busisnesses as they are a little far from each other. The shade is the main eating area and so each business must have one hence for it to attract customers. The businesses are small hence the constant need to grow even if its buying another equipment that i also have. This is just an indication that i have seen the possibilities of growth,thanks.

Tuition for degree in nursing
Thanks to my lenders I was able to purchase the otoscope. Have had a very busy week, or two at that. Was working on a mini-research on Nurse Manager's leadership style and it's impact on staff intention to stay and staff/patient satisfaction. It was stressful but exciting, trying to analysis a data using the SPSS for the first time. I now know that for my final research work I won't have problems analysing data. Hope the past week was productive?
