About Me
I am a trader, farmer and a social worker, working with Compassion for Humanity Foundation, an NGO helping my community and younger youths to learn a trade for their future. Currently, I have four children.
I sell foodstuffs and agro-chemicals and sell them only on market days in my village. I believe the support will help me to improve my small business and also earn more income. I live in Koforidua and run my project in a village called Adawso in Akuapem –North district. It is a small village with a population of 1,600. Tuesdays and Fridays are market days in my village, and farming employs 95% of the people. On these market days, all the farmers come to buy and sell their farm products. Selling agro–chemicals and other foodstuff sells faster and the earnings or profit is good: that is why I chose to trade in such a business.
Besides, I have also started a school for my community as well. Compassionate Kids School is the name of the school, where children within my community can have a better education for their future. For more information, www.compassion4humanity.com is my web site.
My Business
My business provides my village market with foodstuffs and ago-chemicals for the farmers. The demand for such goods is high and, every market day, goods almost get finished. This makes it more profitable. There are some risks the business faces, including the lack of capital to buy more goods. Every month it costs about $300 for goods. Sales revenue per month is also $450 and the profit in a month is $100, after paying off other expenses like transport. With this profit, when given the loan, I can pay even before the repayment date.
Also, I will use the loan to improve the school I run as well, so that later I pay back as we make some income.
Loan Proposal
Dear Lenders,
Over the months you have helped me on my business and I am doing well. This time I want to have the loan to also improve teaching and learning at my school, Compassionate Kids School, that I run for my community for children to have a good education for a brighter future.
When given the loan, the money will be used to buy some teaching and learning materials for the children to learn, water for our poly tank for the children to drink and also used for cooking for the children.
We lack water at moment, as the rains have not started and sometimes we have drink from a stream within the town. Before we used to harvest rain water, but now there is no rain and no water for the school. Teaching materials to teach the children is also a challenge now, and teachers need it to help teach these children to make them read and write well.
Daily, children are ask to pay 1 Ghc and these will be used to support the repayment of the loan. The loan will also be used to assist children who are unable to pay for daily feeding at the school and later parents pay back. So all children can have the right to the quality education that Compassionate Kids School is offering.
