Hi Lenders,
I am grateful and thankful for your support since i joined Zidisha.
Me and my family, We have passed through tough moments in the past (2017) but I am happy to report to you that all situations are resolved and my business is stable. Last month I made a net income of KES 10,000 ($100) which I used to purchase a Windows smart phone for my wife worth KES 7,500 ($75) and I used the remaining amount to purchase clothes for our one year old daughter.
This month (FEB) I am estimating it to be a net profit of KES 15,000 ($150).
My long term plans are to purchase an acre of land and build a home for my family. I am relying on Zidisha to make this dream come true.
I also know I have not been prompt in repaying my previous loan but I am humbly asking for another chance to correct this and cleanse my repayment records.
In addition to that, there are few people I refereed who are in arrears. I have taken an initiative to visit them and ind out why. All of them have assured me that they will clear the outstanding balances before the month ends.
However, I have applied another loan two times without success am wondering what could be the problem. I have applied for the third time now and am still waiting for it to be published before its funded. Kindly advice.

I received the loan on time and I used it for the purchase of feeds and fowl pox vaccine. My birds have been laying eggs constantly and rarely do diseases affect them. The eggs that I have picked will be hatched at a nearby hatchery for the purpose of sale and increasing my stock.

Thank you so much for sponsoring my previous loan, I was able to buy the following supplements which i sold to my clients, aloe berry nectar , aloe propolis cream×2, aloe vera gel ×2, forever bright tooth gel ×2, hand sanitizer ×5 and aloe ever shield ×2. I also opened a facebook page for advertising purposes to boost the business and I created a Vip whatsapp group for my clients and prospects where I post product updates to promote repeat sells.iam currently waiting for feedback from management if one of the shopping malls where I wrote a letter asking for permission to set up a table to show case the supplements in order to target new customers. Thank you once again for your help in growing my business

To Mary . I answer yes. Farmers are asking for it very often. Mr Rusty Orner in a general way taught us the culture of the mushroom and especially SHIITAKE. His wife made us taste a dish that I present here in photo. I wanted you to be in my place for this tasted, so it was delicious.
Zidisha with his lenders gave meaning to my life. I already said it and I repeat it today.
Thanks.

Good night ladies I love and all other Zidisha teams that I respect. Sorry on Sunday I did not have time to send messages to you all. That"s because my condition is declining after finished renovating my store. Plus the recent weather in my city (Jakarta) is being hit by an extreme rainy season so I have to make some additional improvements especially in the roof / tile of my leaked shop. It is now entering the 9th day I open a shop in this new place. And thank God Alhamdulillah from the first day until now the amount of income is quite tolerable, although not normal as usual or not yet stable. Probably because many do not know if my store has moved to this new location. As time goes by I strongly believe that I can get a bigger income than in the previous place. Because here the location is more strategic, which is closer from the crossroads and also not traversed by public transport so much so that once people walk across my store. Here I attach my latest store display photo. Thank you very much to the lenders and of course all the Zidisha team members who have helped me so much that I can now open my store again. Good evening, successful greeting is always for all of us.

Selamat malam para pemberi pinjaman yang saya cintai dan seluruh team Zidisha lainnya yang saya hormati. Mohon maaf di Minggu kemarin saya tidak sempat mengirimkan pesan-pesan kepada Anda semua. Hal itu dikarenakan kondisi saya sedang menurun setelah selesai merenovasi toko saya. Ditambah lagi akhir-akhir ini cuaca di kota saya (Jakarta) sedang dilanda musim hujan yang cukup ekstrem sehingga saya harus melakukan beberapa perbaikan tambahan terutama di bagian atap/genteng toko saya yang bocor. Saat ini sudah memasuki hari ke-9 saya membuka toko di tempat yang baru ini. Dan syukur Alhamdulillah dari hari pertama hingga saat ini jumlah pemasukannya cukup lumayan, walaupun belum normal seperti biasanya atau belum stabil. Mungkin dikarenakan banyak yang belum tahu jika toko saya sudah berpindah ke lokasi yang baru ini. Seiring berjalannya waktu saya sangat meyakini bahwa saya bisa mendapatkan pemasukan yang lebih besar dibanding di tempat yang sebelumnya. Karena disini lokasinya lebih strategis, yaitu lebih dekat dari persimpangan jalan dan juga tidak dilalui oleh angkutan umum sehingga banyak sehingga sekali orang yang berjalan kaki melintasi toko saya.
Berikut ini saya lampirkan foto tampilan terbaru toko saya.
Terima kasih banyak saya ucapkan kepada para pemberi pinjaman dan juga tentunya seluruh anggota team Zidisha yang telah banyak membantu saya sehingga sekarang saya sudah bisa membuka toko saya lagi. Selamat malam, salam sukses selalu untuk kita semua.
