Moreover, I started my elementary school at Methodist after successful completion to Presbyterian Senior High School. After completion, I went on to pursue Diploma in Education at the Offinso College of Education. I was employed by the Ghana Education Service (GES) as a professional teacher after obtaining my Diploma in Education. I started another studies with University of Education Winneba by distance learning and now had my Degree in Education. Currently, I am teaching at BESS Junior High School Berekum.
MY HOBBIES

My Business

PRINTING PRESS BUSINESS
Whiles I was still in school studying to become a professional teacher I was still having at the back of my mind to establish my own business. I was business minded, so right after my completion in the year 2009, I devoted part of my time after teaching to learn how to operate a printing press business. Thanks to” Headband’s Computers and Printing Press” they gradually equip me for this business.
Moreover, in the year 2011, I was graduated to start my own printing press known as “True Light Printing Press”. Looking at the situation at hand, it is a must we have this business in my town. There are a lot of Schools, Businesses and other Organization that need these services badly. They are really finding it difficult to type and print their work. Aside that there are unemployed people in the town who can get the chance to work and at the same time learn how to operate this business. Having this in mind and many other things is the main cause of the establishment of the printing press. I am now having four (4) apprentices and three (3) full time workers. Some of the services we offer include: Typesetting, Lamination, Posters, Invitation cards, Scanning, Photocopying, Books printing, Calendar making, Printing of passport pictures. I am able to purchase many of the necessary machines needed for these services with a loan I got from Ghana Commercial Bank. There are still more that I can do to enhance my business and also make it continue to stand unique among the rest. I will rest here and plead with the entire Zidisha Lenders to support me bring out the best in me so that I can contribute my quota to the development of my community and the entire Country.


REPAYING OF LOAN
Because people are patronizing my services, I am able to make profit and can pay the loan from these profits. Aside this, I am a teacher and for that matter receives monthly salary. I will also pay using my salary. I assure you, I will pay the loan if I am granted.
Thank you.

Loan Proposal

I owe Lenders great thanks for loaning to me four (4) consecutive times. You have impacted my family, my business and my community too. I was able to use the loan you gave me wisely and for that matter have paid back successfully. I am counting on you for my fifth loan which is going to be use to purchase a brand new Electricity Generator. This has become necessary due to the power crises we are facing in Ghana for now. Productivity is getting low since we cannot work all the time. I therefore need the generator urgently to keep my Printing Press moving and also make my services available all the time. Also the store room I am operating my business has become too small to accommodate all my machines and my apprentice. I want to rent bigger store room that can take all of us so that we can work comfortably. I am going to use an amount of $1000 to buy the Electricity Generator and the rest of $1046 will be used to rent the new store room and its decoration. I promise you again I am going to pay back the loan to your satisfaction. Thank you for your continual support.
