My generous lenders, my school will be reopened on monday 11/09/2017. Clean up exercise will be done on the reopening day and commence classes on Tuesday 12/09/2017. In fact my dear lenders, the loan helped me to increase my population about 15% for the last academic year. This academic year, I intend to increase my population to about 20%. This can be achieved by targeting admitting more girls into my school. This is because, the little research I have made reveals that, the number of boys are far more than the girls and I intend to bridge the gap this academic year. I am certain with your kind and generous assistance, I will be able to come out with strategies to attract more girls to the school. I am grateful to you and may God bless you all my lenders and grant you long life.

Wow...!!!! Thank you so very much my lenders for fully funding my loan!!!! Am extremely elated for this generous act that you have done for me. Well, as already highlighted in my loan application profile, I intend to purchase a radiator for my recently acquired taxi minibus. Once the taxi minibus starts operating, it means that the fleet of my taxi minibus will increase from one to two, thereby also increasing the revenue that will be realized from my transport business. Moreover, the taxi minibus will create employment to the driver and conductor that will be employed. Taxes will also be paid to the government. A very big thank you once more time to you all my good, wonderful and generous lenders. You have made the running and growing of my transport business much easier, in that you always come through for me in times of need. May God richly Bless You All..!!!

A $710 stock of inventory will at least increase my profits by 30% of which i will reinvest about 20% and use the remaining on savings and taking care of my family needs. Thanks to all my lenders. Thanks to Zidisha.
