Violet
received a $97 initial payment.
"I was on my way to the nearest shop to pick some items for breakfast on credit, and later on pay for them when I get money. Just at the door step of the shop waiting for a customer to finish up and leave, a notification was heard from my phone confirming the receipt of my first transfer. I felt so touched and wondered how tough situations could at times change and favour us. It was in deed a blessing which was less expected at that moment!"
