About Me

My name is Addai Charles. I am fetentaa in the Brong Ahafo region of Ghana. A community of about nine hundred population. The main occupation here is farming. We mostly grow tomatoes. I belong to a family of six. My parents, two sisters,a boy and I. I am the fourth son of my parents. My parents are farmers.
After completion of senior high,I entered into farming business for two years before continued my education. This is all because of financial constraints on me.
After getting some money,I rushed for an application form and God so good, I passed my interview and entered into Tertiary education.
I became a professional teacher in last four years. I am now a school manager in my community.
I am able to use my pass experience to help so many students in my community and beyond. I used to teach Information and Communication Technology in my previous school.
The game I like best is football. Am a goalkeeper in my community team( The Royals).

My Business

I live in a community of about nine hundred population. Majority of them are farmers. Tomatoes are our major crop we cultivate sometimes,customers fail us to buy and at the end,they all get rot.
Since most of our peoples are farmers,they mostly send their wards(school going kids) to farms. This is so because,there is no school in my community here. Some of the children walk about eight kilometers before they reach their school (next town). Majority of the children fail to attend school because of the distance of the school.
I used to teach at the next town(Jinijini) of mine but looking at the condition of my town, I consulted the elders and some religious leaders here and they gave me go ahead to establish a school to lift education high here.
Now,my community is having a school called "DO UNTO OTHERS PREPARATORY SCHOOL".

Loan Proposal

I am very happy about the way Zidisha system has helped me to achieve some of my target in teaching of ICT(Information Communication and Technology. In fact the two computers I bought have helped me to achieve some level of my typing target.
LOAN PROPOSAL.
I am having thirty students in my class and when it gets to the turn or ICT lesson, there is always pressure on the only two sets of computers. When this happen, only few pupils can get in contact with the machines.
I am here to raise another loan in other to buy some additional ten computers,a printer and two package of A4 sheets. By my estimation, the ten set of second hand computers will cost me $500, a printer will cost me $60, two packed of A4 sheets will cost me $20 and keep some of the money so that if there is any damage to the machines ,then I use it to fix it.
HOW TO REPAY THE LOAN.
I will repay the loan from my printing works.
THANK YOU!
