Expand my business "Wendynash business venture"

I used the loan received from Zidisha to purchased My Airtime thus MTN, AIRTEL, TIGO and VODAPHONE, the remaining amount was spent on Part payment of my container and my transportation. At first I used to buy just 50 Ghana Cedis of each Airtime but Now I can Afford 150 Ghana Cedis.
My profit have been reimbursed into the purchased of more Airtime, the rest part payment of my container. Since I joined zidisha I can now confidently say I am a proud owner of my business. My neighborhood is quiet an interesting place, We have a new shopping Mall, my end is very busy due to movement of people to and form the mall, sometimes Christian Crusades, funerals my people are most fascinated about, and on Sundays the roads are quiet because most people do attend church services to praise, sing, thank and worship God.

Its onus on us the people of less develops countries to be faithful, committed, hardworking and trustworthy to ensure that Zidisha succeed in breeding new entrepreneurs in developing these countries.

To purchase building materials for building my own house

As a student finding it difficult to pay my bills so as to have a peaceful mind to study. I tried taking loan from some financial institutions here in Ghana, but the interest rates they are charging is too high that I can't repay the loan, therefore couldn't access loan locally. It's at this crucial time that a friend introduced me to Zidisha. I used one month to read more about zidisha to really understand how Zidisha really works. Initially, I doubted it. How can people give you loan if they don't know you and that they are not charging any interest on the loan given to you?
But now I can confessed that, one year after joining Zidisha, not only did I successfully completing my program but also having a business where I employed four staffs and I am paying them monthly. Also, I am able to pay my child's school fees, able to take good care of my family, support my community and neighbors as well.
With this support from Zidisha I can see a clear future for myself and all others who would join Zidisha and be faithful in repaying their loan on time.
Grateful to the founder Julia Kurnia for such a bold step (first of its kind in the world), Team Zidisha and all the lenders who are generously lending to me and others. Your desire to support us is much more appreciated. God bless you all.

I am able to stock my rented shop with toilet rolls and sale is gradually doing well, hence my decision to increase my weekly repayment.
Secondly, I also want to pay more so that my lenders can get their investment back early, so that they may re-loan it to other applicants who may need such opportunity.
Thirdly, I also want to adjust my repayment upwards so that I can complete early in order to be able to raise my next loan more quickly.
