Loan Proposal
Zidisha has helped to grow my business and i am very much grateful to the organization. For any business to succeed it needs good investment both in terms of finance and skills, and that's why i would like to apply another loan to use it to attend a short course IT course. I believe once i clear the course i would acquire latest skills concerning IT. IT industry is one of the fastest growing field in the world and i saw the need of enrolling in the short course so that i may remain relevant in the industry. The total course is costing $240 and so far i have raise $140 through my savings from the freelancing and IT services, so i would like to borrow $90 from Zidisha.
The loan would help me acquire skills in IT and hence i would be able to be more industrious ad resourcefully in terms of freelancing and IT services.
