I started my Alimentary school in obuasi, a village in the Ashanti region where most of the people are into farming. My parents are into cassava, plantain and palmnut production. I stayed with them and helped them in their faming work until I completed junior high school (Adanse High international school). The money gotten from the farm was used to help me attend senior high school. (Amaniapomng Senior High School in the Ashanti region)
It was very difficult for me during the school days but with determination everything was successful for me. I helped them weed their farms during my vacation periods until I completed school in 2006.
Financial constraints made it difficult for my parents to enroll me into tertiary, so I travelled far to Goaso (western region) to engage in teaching. With my little savings from teaching work, I was able to sponsor myself into the tertiary level where I studied nursing.
I attended Premire Nursing Training School, a private nursing training in Ashanti region, where I studied certificate in nursing.
My parent used the money generated from the farm to assist paying my fees and other things were catered for by the help of this same money. After my tertiary education, getting employment was difficult, so I went to Tafo Government Hospital to work. From there, I was employed at The Obuasi Government Hospital and currently am working at AngloGold Ashanti hospital in Obuasi. Savings from my salary helped me rented a small store in my village to be used as a printing press, since there wasn’t any printing press around, the schools in my village use to travel far to Kumasi to print their exams questions and other important documents needed by the town. I am married with two kids. I want to educate my children to become nurses and teachers in the future. Playing football is my hobby.
I provide photocopy services to the government. I provide services such as printing, photocopying, scanning, typing, research data entering, data analysis as well. A lot of people need my services because they are quality and affordable. They need my services in high rate. I used GHS2000 to start the business. I used the money from the business to look after my children in school. Investment in getting more customers. This will help me grow the business. I will use part ($30) of the money to develop my home. I will use part ($10) to support the needy. The shop will be used by the people in my village and the neighboring communities. I will use part of the money ($50) to hire labours to work in the shop.
Currently, I have one person working there, so I will also employ a lot of people ($150) when the students in the tertiary education reach their final year because of their research works. I will also use part of the money ($50) to help my wife to further her education. I will use some of the money ($100) to further my education. I will provide more printing machines such as lamination machine, computers, scanning machine, and binding machine to supply the people in the community and the rest of the people in other communities in order to meet their demand. I will expand the business to commercial one. I advocate for the youth to also be in the photocopy, printing and research business. I will use part ($20) of the money to develop my church.with the help of the first loan I've been able buy the lamination machine athe it going on well. I was also able print pass questions for the jhs student who just completed at a lesser fee,this is all thanks to you .
