About Me

I am Samuel Atta Boakye, born and live in Sunyani in the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. I live at Belin Top a suburb of Sunyani. I am 35 years old, dark in complexion, moderately built and about 5.5 feet tall. I am a married man with three children, two boys and a girl. I had an opportunity to complete my Senior High School education at Sunyani Senior High School. I went on to pursue Diploma in Education at Saint Joseph College of Education at Bechem in the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. I have been in active teaching for about 10 years now. I am currently teaching at Methodist JHS Fiapere. My hobbies are watching soccer and playing with children.

My Business

Taken care of needy students

I am a professional teacher who has been in the teaching service for the past 10 years. I am currently teaching at Methodist JHS Fiapre, a town very close to Sunyani the regional capital of the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. During these years of teaching, I have been providing assistance to needy student in the school. I am doing this because I can see some of the children are really struggling in terms of paying their school fees, getting of school uniform and food to eat when in school. I feel bad when I see children been chased out of class to go for their school fees because their parent are failing to do so. I have taken it upon myself to look after 2 students, a boy and a girl, who are currently in JHS 2 and JHS1 respectively. These 2 children lost their parent in a fatal accident and need to be assisted since the family is not giving them the needed attention. As a teacher I have been earning $270 monthly and aside that I have some other business to operate after school. I use some of my income to cater for them. I hope Zidisha will help me to take good care of these children by giving me loan to support them.

Loan Repayment
I am going to use part of my monthly salary to pay the loan. I will not fail in any way to pay back when you grant me this loan.

Loan Proposal

We are in vacation and school is going to be reopen soon. I an going to use the amount requested to buy for my two student books and school bag. I want to buy it before school reopen. I will plead with all Lenders to support me once again. Thanks for your support.

    Hi Samuel,

    We still believe in you :-) You can do it... It doesn't matter if you're a little bit late. Just give everyone an update sometime soon so we know you're not a ghost :-) You'll be ok, you can do it...

    All the best, Emma from Australia.

    Hi Samuel, I am hoping you will be able to make even small payments on your loan. You were doing so well for months, and I imagine something bad happened to keep you from paying in time. I wish you the best. Please communicate with your lenders so we know what is happening. Even if you pay back late, as long as you are making progress, then your lenders will have faith in you for future loans.

    How are you Samuel? I notice your repayment rate has slipped.... It is not so important for me, but I think it is important for you.
    Good luck in 2016.
