Though it's been a while since the last funding of my project, I have to say that the funding was worthy the course. It was during the dwindling economy due to the pandemic but the funding helped me so that my business got somewhere. Right now I trust that by your funding me this project I will have to go another mile. Dear lenders, I therefore humbly request that you support me just as you did the other time and am sure that with your support I will make a stride. Thanks in advance hoping that you will consider my sincere humble request dear ones.
Yours faithfully, Milika Akosa Shitela.
Regards.
