About Me

My name is Amankona Linda. l come from Gulumpe in the Kintampo north district in the Brong ahafo region of Ghana west Africa.I'm a girl of 24yearsand the second born if four children I own a small provision store in my village. With the the help of my senior sister I started a hawking business and later lead to a small provision store. Thanks to Zidisha I have been improving on my shop with their loan. Gulumpe is an agricultural area with different tribes and different culture living harmoniously. I want my children to be well educated and be good citizen and philanthropists in future. I like reading a lot.I want to establish an orphanage in the near future and also help brilliant but needy students.And also I like listening to gospel musics

My Business

when I completed senior high school in 2009 and due to the lost of my parents job I couldn't continue my education. I started a hawking business (petty trading) With the help of my elder sister. through hard working I was able to raise some money to start small provision store.I sell maize flour,rice,canned tomatoes, sugar,drinks,spaghetti, diaper,Milo,teabags,toiletries. I sometimes use the profit to increase the stock of my shop and also help in paying my siblings school fees. I also intend to establish an orphanage in the near future.Also Zidisha lenders have helped me to add groundnut paste production to my shop.

Loan Proposal

I will use the loan to buy two bags of rice which will cost 300ghs that is each bag cost 150ghs.since rice is a staple food it will help me get more customers and hence increase my profit limit because it demand is high during planting season.neighbors will also walk long distance or travel to get rice since it will be available to them. It also will help me increase my profit to about 20%.thank you lenders for always lending

    Dear Linda,

    I just saw your message on Isaac’s page.

    Did you see this announcement from our director on our forum? www.zidisha.org/forum-threa...

    That forum topic is frequently updated with the new status updates. If it says the problem should be resolved then please check your account again. In the meantime you might get automatically generated mails about “paying late”. You can ignore those mails.

    The payments will still be recorded on the day that you did the actual payment and the repayment score will be recalculated. So my advice is to continue to pay as scheduled.

    Kind regards,
    Joost
    Team Zidisha

    Hope your business goes well! I can appreciate your business because I grew up partly in Accra and was introduced to Ground Nut Stew - a favorite! I cook it even now for my adult children in the U.S. :)
