About Me

I am a Ghanaian traditional woman born on the 15 day of April, 1988. i hail from a cottage and very hospitable cottage in the southern Ghana in the Tano South District called Mabang. The predominant occupation of the inhabitants is farming and trading. I am a designer. I show much of my design in locally made cloths. I have two kids now who are all scholling but it is unfortunate their father is not around to support them financially.

My Business

As one of the most outstanding designers in town, I design clothing for wedding, birth day parties, Funerals and several occasions which attracts peoples of different walks of life. I do all this using our locally produce cloths and other items. I am found of projecting the good value of our culture and ourselves., hence, entering into this business.

Loan Proposal

Hello my lenders, perseverance is key to success because, there is always light at the end of the tunnel. My loan proposal has already expired three times without being fully funded. But, I have not given because I cannot solicit help from anywhere apart from zidisha. My business, which is selling of traditional clothes, is improving steadily. I will therefore, use this loan to expand it.
Specifically, the loan will be used to purchase the following:

Traditional clothes (kente)=$150
Beads of different kinds=$100
Smock =$150
Necklace=$60
Transportation=$40
By lenders, due to the Christmas, the demands for these items is high. People attend functions with traditional clothes during occasions like Christmas. I previous loans have increased my profit to about 25% of my existing capital.
I am therefore pleading with lenders to fund my loan for me and I promised to pay on time as always done. Thank you and Merry Christmas to all my lenders in advance.
