About Me

I am named Baah Richard. I come from Berekum but stay atKato in the Brong Ahafo region of Ghana. I had my Basic Education at the Berekum Methodist Junior High School and further at the Berekum Senior High School.
I persued a Diploma in Education at the Berekum College of Education . I am currently pursuing a degree in Mathematics Education at the Catholic University. I am in a family of Six and the second born of my parents.
I teach at Kato S.D.A Junior High School and own a private school along side. My hobbies are reading novels, studying and watching football

My Business

I started my private school with name “THE FUTURE EDUCATIONAL COMPLEX” in the year 2011 at my own compound. I started my school upon my posting to the community as a teacher. Kato is a farming community and education seems to have been given little attention. I started the school with ten students but the number grew to twenty-four at the end of that academic year.
Currently, I have 120 students that is from the kg to primary 4. I have been able to employ eight teachers and two non – teaching staff. My school is highly patronized mostly due to my terms of paying of school fees which is by installment. Parents are allowed to pay their wards fees on installment which is spread across each academic term.
Although my school is fast growing there are many challenges which needs to be met. Most of my classrooms are in temporal wooden structures. The school has to be closed whenever it rains. I started with two classroom block which is at the roofing level.
I wish to apply to Zidisha to come to my aid to help improve the structure to be able to retain
the children is school. I will need about $100 to undertake this project.

Loan Proposal

I hope to put it to a good use by buying nails and wood so that the classrooms can be roofed. I have already bought the roofing sheet .A total cost of about 100 dollars is estimated to embark on this mission, I will be able to repay under any terms and conditions given. The school is highly patronized and parents pay their wards fees regularly. Thanks for reading and your contribution is welcomed.
