About Me

my name is Pomaa Mavis ,l came from kumasi in the Ashanti region of Ghana i am the first born in the family of 5 and i am the only one who never finished secondary school, though i am the only girl.
My mother was to be a house helper since my mother was not educated, and that was the best job she could do, when she was working as a house help her boss rape her and she got pregnant, when the wife to the boss realized that she was pregnant and her husband was responsible she though her out of the house and few months later they relocated and my mother lost the address, and that is how she made the man who raised me up.
Up to now i have never known who my biological father is, and that is a challenge to me, my step father took me to school up to primary education then took me to a youth polytechnic where i did tailoring, i am marred with 3 daughters.

My Business

I did dress making and tailoring in a youth polytechnic for two years and i have grade 3 in cloths production, since my mother is a , i have been going to a Nigeria to buy cloth materials for selling and also for making cloths, i now have a tailoring shop that i have been owning for the last 5 years, although the capital has been a challenge, because i have been depending on marry go rounds and also group loans which requires some savings for you to have a loan and more so the interest rate is also high.
When i had about zidisha which gives loans with almost no interest i was so impressed because i will be able to borrow money to buy cloths material, make profit and help my husband pay our children school fees and pay other bills, so please help me realize my dreams by funding this loan a application, thank you in advance.
