Appreciation to all my lenders for the loan. It proved to be a great deal purchasing the fridge. It's been a leap in business having the fridge in my laboratory. I have been able to keep my reagents that need cold storage well thereby increasing their viability. Having the fridge kind of doubled my earnings, precisely by $12. It gave me a chance to offer serological tests that I could not before. I have been saving for the expansion of my business. I have gotten a business house for expansion to an outpatient clinic. I have already paid six months rent in advance and started partitioning. I have my niece in a good school in class one. It's a great feeling. comment image

I would like t express my sincere delight to the entire Zidisha fraternity for making a really huge impact in my shoe business. and my life as well. When i applied for Zidisha loan, i had a very hindering challenge as i used to sell my shoes in an open field exposed to direct sunlight and this made most of them to change color from the original one. This brought about damages in my business but since i got the loan from Zidisha however little, i tried my best to build a shade for my shoes which is making my business run smoothly. this is evident in the photo below that i took recently! comment image

I will also help the needy in the community and others from different societies. I will expand the business to commercial farming. I may need money for this expansion of the business.

Hello Lenders, I just got back from Galo Sota, a remote village in the Volta region of my country, where I have been organising a free health-screening exercise for the people in that small farming community. Personally, I'm happy that I have been of help to the community. The only difficulty was lack of mobile-network reception, which prevented me from repaying on Sunday as scheduled. I'm happy to be back, and I have paid my loan. Please forgive me for the one-day delay. It was beyond my control. Thanks for your patience.
