About Me

at a thunder age, i started school when staying with my granny. i was very poor in academics but due to this my granny enrolled me on special classes so i passed my exams and got admission to Senior high school where i studied visual arts. i became a seamstress after high school. culturally there is a high patronage of what i sew which help me get my daily earns. i wanted to become a lawyer which i couldn't, therefore i will entrust that to my male child if only he wish to. i learn new styles in seamstress's work which i classify as my hobby and prefer playing hide and seek with my family.

My Business

i sew cloths for people, mainly african wear as we call it. African wear production is very lucrative since in my country Ghana for instance atleast every ofice must wear this once every week which is fridays. due to this it has yielded a high patronage. i does this in a small wooden shop which is not safer for me. my business fetch me about 50 ghana cedis weekly which i believe shall earn higher when am able to expand my shop with metal for security reasons people will troop in.

Loan Proposal

The cost of a sewing machine is GHS 700.00. I have fund GHS 200.00 from my business coffers. Mother also gave GHS 55.00 from her bank. I believe zidisha can help me with the rest which is GHS 490.00. i am very optimistic this loan is going to make an impact on life and business when being disburse to me.
