When I went to re visit Joan Kasinje recently, I was happy to know that she had found a good location for her new shop, set it up and now her remaining duty is to maintain it well stocked with more sugar, salt, soap, cooking oil and some of the other items that are still lacking because she is still paying back her loan but once she has paid back fully, she will be able to ask for another loan that will change the face of her shop to a more fulfilling position.
