    I am happy that my lovely lenders have started contributing for this worthy cause of gradually establishing an entrepreneurial centre to train young and upcoming girls. This will help in the near future reduce high rate of unemployment in my country Ghana.
    Past loans raised so far have been used to decorate the sewing shop. Another machine has also been bought. Gradually, I will my reach my goal. I only need your support.
    Thanks for your support.

    Good afternoon my lovely lenders,
    I appreciate all that you're doing to help expand my business and gradually in the process of setting up an entrepreneurial centre to train young girls in the area of sewing. Without you lending I would not be able to setup an entrepreneurial centre to help these young girls create jobs for themselves and the country as a whole. Therefore, I am pleading to those who have not lent to come and lend for this worthy cause. Thanks for your support and may God bless you all.
