Hi Lenders, It is with great pleasure and acknowledgement i give to you from all the inhabitants of the village that have received great help from the loan you help change their lives. The pump has really benefited them at this current situation where temperature is really high and rain is also not that common in this times also. The machine has really given them high yields of crops and vegetables such as cassava, tomatoes, pepper, cabbage and etc. I have not been able to visit the villages recently due to my tight work schedule but i am in touch with them and as you can see, the loan is repaid on-time too. Thanks so much once again Lenders for changing the lives and giving many people in these villages an enlightenment in their lives.
