Project Updates

You did it Mack :-) Well done!! I really admire your persistence :-)

So glad you reposted the loan... For some reason quite a few loans weren't getting funded over the last couple months, so don't take it too personally that you were having a hard time getting funded. It was frustrating to see, so I can imagine it was very stressful on your end... I'm really sorry it took so many attempts, but YOU DID IT :-) It looks like loans are getting funded again, so I'm not sure what was happening before, but I'm glad you didn't let it deter you, & hopefully aren't too discouraged for the future... You've definitely got my support, and again, really admire you not giving up...

Good luck with everything Mack.
All the best, Emma.

I have received an amount of 414 as loan from my lenders. This loan that has been given to me would be to used to buy my course books so that I would learn and pass my quizzes and my end of term examination. I thank my lenders for the loan granted .

Through the profits I have attained from the business has enabled me to expand it .for example instead of buying packed items in dozen or ten packs I buy in bales which give me good profits ,softcare baby diapers packed 40 of them goes for 7$,which we sell each 0.2$ will bring a profit of 1$ per pack.But if I buy a bale of 6 packs which sells at 33$ will bring a profit of 11$.So when I buy in larger quantity the better profit though it stays longer.

Last holiday was very successful because of the independence celebration, it brought so many people to my neighbourhood and business was very good.
I made quite significant sales. It has increased my capital margin to 3% more.

Thank you so much ZIDISHA team and good lenders for supporting me financially. With this loan, I will buy a roll of horse pipe for watering at a cost of KES 3500,4 pieces of floor traps at a cost of KES 700,5 pieces of cutting blades at a cost of KES 500,tangit glue at a cost of KES 1500,some pieces of a sorted materials like ppr sockets, PVC ³/⁴ inches, pvc 4 inches,ppr plain elbows and ppr sockets of one inch all at a cost of KES 5000,some soft polythene and fine fiber at a cost of KES 200 and a packet of razor blade at a cost of KES 20.Net income got from my work will enables me to buy food, clothes, good shelter for the family, paying school fees for the children, paying work and home bills adequately. This also enables income to increase by 50%.

Zidisha has assisted me and other members to actualize our dreams. There is virtually no institution that could have lent us an ear on matters finances....this is however not the case with Zidisha. Everyone is given an opportunity by the global community by funds raised by individual members.

Thank you Zidisha and I wish that it goes on for a long long time and my only plea to fellow borrowers is to repay all your loans!!!

i really thank my dear lenders for supporting my education till now .through zidisha loan i am able to passed the semester exams and move to the next level of semester.

My dear lenders, from my heart, I thank you so much for such greater helping hands you have extended to me, my family and community around me. My profits will be shared with my family and and less privileged kids under my school Dreamers Scholarship Fund (DSF). This fund has not been successful in 2017 due to lack of profits. It was caused by shifting from one house to another. You support will be permanent solution.
Thank you.
