When angels are being counted my lenders should not miss in that list. I wouldn't be able to make the stride that I have made in business if it weren't for you guys. May God continue to prolong your life and bless you financially and health wise so that you may continue to be a blessing to me and others who are financially challenged. The money I got was a sum of $140.80 which is Kshs. 14080. I used it to buy 20litres of liquid oil, 40kg of rice, 40kg of sugar, 20kg of maize flour,10kg of beans,10kg of greengrams. This will be of great help as my food stock has increased. Thank you so much

This is how I felt after making the purchase.

I wish to thank my lenders (Paul Buchheit, Jake Gibson and Berverly Picardo for the loan of $ 250.34 you advanced to me. You are such darling friends. I used the loan to purchase a laptop worth $340. This has helped my business to improve efficiency since my employee uses the laptop to help me finish up the work which i used to struggle alone before i bought a new laptop. The profits have increased by 35% since i bought the laptop which has helped the business to run effectively. I have also used the profit generated to do marketing in the form of fliers which are distributed in the morning and evening along the major highways within the city to increase my customer base. I also used part of the profit generated to pay school fees for my neighbors' child whose parents are struggling. With your continued support i will be able to grow the business at the same time extent my hand to the less privileged within my area of reach especially to school going children who cannot raise school fees. This is in the spirit that education is the key to success and also opens doors where it seems impossible. Once again thank you dear lenders and i look forward to your further help. Cheers

The son is fast learning the ropes. This is macadamia farming...Ever rising

Lenders, featured here is my current state of my store ( still building it slowly due to low cash flow) , a grass shade for my cow( yet to be thatched due to lack of money to buy iron sheets. Coming up soon), a snap of my current land state as I clear weeds by burning them despite of knowing the consequences of burning the soil. I think now we are on the same page. I wish not to increase nor decrease my weekly repayments due to heavy burden. I will have to work with it that way. I have a bigger project coming up by July. Happy Lent season to my fellow Catholic community if any in the house.

Hi lenders and my humble followers,
Today is a big day. I will be unavailing Rainmaker. The way to go on with farming on a dry land. The system is here with me waiting installation by the system engineer. This is to cut off labor cost and reduce manual work. I will then be able to concentrate more on my plants. I wish not to empty the project at this point. Keep posted and see. This system is bought from profit after selling my farm produce- cereals to be specific. And this maybe the end of planting cereals...

Thank you for the support and support you have given me because I can complete the obligation to pay the loan I received. Here is one of the organic vegetable products that I managed to cultivate and market.

With the loan I managed to get mukwa timber for making a coffee table and pine timber to make chests of drawers. among other items bought were varnish, glue, nails and screws to help with the products. this purchase made a difference as it enabled me to move a step forward and my earnings have increased by 50%.

Thanks for your funds which helped me to improve my irrigation system, the drip system is helping me to reduce the cost of irrigation and reduce labor as well. I want to extend the coverage of this irrigation system to more area.

i will fix the car, buy new tyres, new shocks both rear and front, this will help keep fit to be on the road and generate more income for the familty, thank you my render very much for this wonderful support.

I will buy school desks and enroll pupils to begin learning at my school, because this will be profitable, thank my renders for support and may God bless you.

I used the loan to buy more shoes at the cost of 100$ n resold it to get a profit of 60$ ....

my little hardware shop

Thanks for the last amount ksh 20,000 that I borrowed and I was able do finish my fence and now my small farm is secure. The neighbors' cows, sheep and goats cannot go through to destroy my crops. I have just finished my harvesting season and I got profit I have never received, my profit went up 100%! Its now a dry season and Am returning all the money into land preparation and buying the inputs for the next season which begins at the end of March.

Since my farm is ok and am sure of farm inputs for the new season, I would want to borrow another money to take my children to a better school. I have 3 children, two girls: Rehema 8 and Amani 5; and one boy: Baraka 1. I would like to take Rehema and Amani in a good school so that I can give them a better foundation of life.

Thanks a lot for being part of what is happening in my family.

Thanks you God Almighty for given us another year to smile again.I am most grateful to all my Lenders and Zidisha Team for supporting my business to grow and the quantity of stock to my customers.Through Zidisha loan my profits has increased by 11.42 percent,So i didn't spend the profit alone during the Christmas season,I was able to think of a widow in
my community by supporting her with 10kg of cooking oil,5kg of tomato paste,10kg of rice and a chicken. Thanks God through Zidisha and my Lenders i was able to put a smile to the widow.
