My name is Obeng Kwasi. I come from Berekum in the Brong Ahafo region. Am twenty -four years old. I have completed senior high school. I'm in a family of five:my parents, two brothers and I.
The game I like best is tennis ball. This is because, it gives me energy. The food I like best is rice ball and groundnut soup.
I am now a storekeeper in my area. I have worked on it for two years now.
After I completed Junior High School, money to be used to continue secondary school was problem for my parents. Because of that I was advice to learn a dress making. There was no option for me than to enter into it.
God been so good,within two years,I qualified and now am a tailor with five people who are also learning the dress making.
Initially, getting a machine to start my own business was a problem until my church elders bought me one.
How to get some customers was also a very big challenge. The church also made so many announcement for me through the use of their information system.
Now,I can boost of two hundred customers who are patronizing my service. At the end of a day,I am able to save around $40. I also use some to cater for my family.
If I get the opportunity to get this money,I will be in a better position to buy the following items:two bags of sugar($50), three boxes of Milo($12),8 boxes biscuit(20),a bag of gari ($10) and many more items to sell them in my shop .l hope these items will help me to get enough profit (about $120) after selling them within a week or at least two.
