Dear members of Zidisha team, I am Lawrence Lawer Nartey. I was born in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. I am 34 years old and aspiring to become an Information Technology professional.
I have been privileged to complete Senior High School where I developed my love and passion for computers with the desire of becoming one of the best IT professionals in my country in the near future. This passion is pushing me further to study hard in other to achieve my goals.
I grew up with my parents and my siblings in the Greater Accra Region which was very fun to have my family members encouraging me to work extra harder in pursuing my dream carrier.
With the aspiration of becoming an IT professional, I read a lot about computers, information systems and computer programming language
Currently, I own and operate an internet cafe which was giving good profit at first.
Now the situation has changed and business is not flourishing as i started due to the current insurgence of smart phones to access the internet.
The problem got worse with frequent unstable electricity power supply in my community. this has contributed to the break down of almost all the computers i used to operate the internet cafe as i had no uninterruptible power supply back up systems to prevent the numerous power surges.
i need this loan to repair my broken down computers and also buy at least two ups devices to protect some of the computers. i also intend adding graphic designing to my internet cafe business so that i will make some profit to pay back this loan to my lenders on time.
This loan will help me find a manageable space for a shop where i can carry on with my cybercafe business , the hardware servicing and the IT training center for my younger generations in the community. i will use part of it to buy computers, subscribe to internet service and procure some few furniture to be used as tables and chairs.
