A Journal Update for Fanta Mansaray
 
Entrepreneur: Fanta Mansaray
Location: Sulemania, Koinadugu, Sierra Leone

Greetings are coming to you from Fanta Mansaray. Fanta is very pleased to inform you that the loan she received from you was put in great use. She invested the loan into her farm by buying seeds. However, due to poor rain falls during the last planting season, the cabbages did not do well as expected. But with the rice farm and the little petty-trading she is doing, she was able to make some profit out of which she repaid her monthly loan. Fanta thanks you a lot for the helping hand.
