Hi members, I am really sorry I am badly overdue with my loan repayment and it has taken me years to even communicate. I have been trying to build a career and it has taken a toll on me. However, I am happy to report here that I finally found a job in my line of study and I have also kept up with my passion, farming! I intend to continue repaying my loan from end of this month and also update you on the progress of the farm. I apologize the inconvenience caused and hope that we can continue from where we left it. Thanks a lot!!!

This loan will successfully help me pay my monthly hostel fees, make Part-payment of school fees for the semester, buy some stationery items for the semester, get some fund for feeding buy some clothing, soap etc and also get transportation.
This would help me in educating myself to a higher level to acquire knowledge.
I'm always grateful and thankful to all lenders who have never disappointed me. I can't thank you enough for your generosity, support and kindness.

Hallo Franmiguel,
I must begin with an apology for going silent and also not making my payments as agreed. This is because, I had to go back to school, though training on a different study all together. At the same time, my kids are growing into high school and university level. This isn't easy and even though I'm done with studies, my kids are now 3 for campus, one in high school.
Now, my writing to you is to thank you for the great help you have been, and to let you know that I'm committed to pay my loan though not at once but I began yesterday. When I'm done paying, I will not be asking for another loan, but I will forever be grateful for what you did, may God bless you.
Thank you for the patience too.

Dear lender, this one goes to you and your beloved family. I really appreciate your lending hand for me and other an ordinary people Whose you never knew and yet you trust.
thumbs up my boss

dear lenders

I am so thankful for standing with me for the last 4 years. At first it wasn't easy, because I was running my business while i was in school. when i got the last loan, i had a fee balance of kshs 87600. i took kshs 50,000 from the loan and added the rest from the business savings, paid all the fee balance. the balance( kshs 37600) i was able to increase the stock which enabled me to raise the rest of the fee for the remaining time of my schooling. I finished my master's degree last year. i am so proud of your support. this year have started another business of printing and stationery services next to a new constructed medical training campus and its doing so well. this far I would say, if it was not for your support I don't know i would have done this much. my new printing and stationery business, need two extra two printing machines. this is because the new campus population has grown and am losing most of my customers because only one machine is working. I have registered for my PhD program in Kenyatta university and am trusting that with the two businesses i will be able to raise more cash for fees and upkeep your support this time will do great work in my business as well in my PhD program. thank you all

thank you so much for reaching out to me, the money will be used to increase my business .

Margaret,

Many thanks for lending me again. As I say always, I will do my part and give you updates always.

Walter.

Hello,
I want to say a big thank you to my lenders for funding my loan.

It'll be used advertise my business to create awareness and get more clients.

Regards

Simon, I was just wondering if you would consider selling lemon juice (for people to add to water) instead of soda's? It often quenches the same desire, but is much better for health (& is also still affordable)...

Also, instead of icecream, frozen coconut serves a similar purpose :-) As does something called "sorbet"...

You seem like such a wonderful person, & your other endeavours are great/very admirable :-) I just thought I'd make those couple of suggestions to help with the influence on the community :-)

(It also attracts more zidisha lenders when things are healthy & vegan)

Wishing you all the best with your endeavours Simon :-)

Thank you once again lenders...am on track to see that my Dream come true,on the next project.
Thank you Zidisha Family at Large...God bless each and everyone.

I look forward to more kindness in the future. Thanks

Thank you so much jochen.

All the best for your business!

Hi Augustina,

I wonder if you've ever heard of solar cooking? We do solar cooking in the UK - we even cooked bread in the middle of winter using just sunshine and mirrors, even though the UK isn't the best place for sun!

It's not electric, it simply concentrates heat from the sun using something reflective. A solar cooker can even be made out of aluminium foil and cardboard, but most people don't know about this.

If you're interested, here is a website with lots of information about solar cooking:

Also here are two links to info on how to make a fireless cooker. These are often used with solar cookers, to allow people to keep the food hot until the evenings. They can also be used with any cooking method to save firewood or other fuel.

I kindly don't want to miss any repayment even if I am down financially. I will pay what I have this month and increase as my income increase. That's why I like zidisha!

Good afternoon lenders

I recently opened a printing and stationery business. It's coming up so well. I am happy that the business has made me pay the remaining amount so fast over the few months it's been running. Thanks so much for your help. God bless you

this picture was taken last week after harvesting,

Dear lenders, yesterday at one of my sites, we started casting the foundation concrete for the building! It's a wonderful project am doing and it's been so helpful.
I am currently looking out for new contracts so that once this one runs out, there's something else to be doing.
Find attached photo of yesterday at work.
Thank you all once again for the support! Really appreciate

Thank you very much for your support. I have been able to buy the sewing accessories to aid in my sewing business. I really pray your business will continue to grow so that you can continue to support me.

I am really happy to find you everything is simple

Hello,
I used my previous loan to set up a business of selling basic household items such as soap, foodstuffs, tissue, sugar etc. It is a small twist from my previous loan usage statement but I wanted to establish a stable business before engaging the online writing business fully. Thank you

Thank you very much my generous lenders and Zidisha staff, i am highly appreciated your support

Hi Hureirat,
Good luck with your studies.
Cheers, Jan from Canada

This is a photo of myself that i recently opened (January 2019) shop i recently opened . Am yet to fill it with fixtures and furniture and stock. Those you are seeing behind me are particle boards used to make computer stands. I really need empowerment to make in this venture..

Thank you very much Anja. People are always happy of it flexible terms of payment and it is one time investment. Solar is the only way. Sorry for the over due reply.

I will use the loan for purchasing soft Dreadlocks, weaves, braids and lotions for my cosmetics shop.thanks alot mr Paul Buchheit for the generous loan.

Thank you lenders for loaning me. I was able to buy a ceiling fan which was fitted in my premises and made a big difference by beating the heat.
