About Me

I am the last of eight offspring of my parents. I was born and bred in Ghana in the western part of the African continent. I stayed a bit in Ivory Coast, where my mum was a trader and my dad, a businessman. I later moved to Burkina Faso with my mum after my dad passed away, and since then I have been closer to my mum more than any other person.

I started my education in Ghana, and now I have completed senior high school and wish to start a business on my own to be able to provide for my tertiary education fees. But to do that means I will have to work a lot to save some money for my oncoming financial needs. I completed junior high school in the year 2011 and senior high school in 2014.

My hobbies are making designs, playing music on our church piano and, finally, teaching our choir how to read music notes. I really enjoy singing and designs.

My Business

I make graphic designs with the use of programs like Photoshop and CorelDraw. The designs I make usually are posters, invitation cards, wedding programs and many more.

I have been in graphic design for about a year and over. I wish to make my own photocopy shop and design center, since I have been employed by a certain printing press in my locality.

Loan Proposal

Please, if I am offered this loan, I will use it to buy a secondhand photocopy machine that someone is selling at a very affordable price, which is about $150.00, but I already got some money so I will add what I am requesting to it to make the money ready to purchase the machine.

I will earn a lot from it. There are so many schools in my locality, and I think the students are going to benefit from my photocopy and graphic design shop. I will get so much interest from it to the extent that I cannot even tell how much I will earn from it. I hope my proposal is given the necessary attention. Thank you.

I have been in Graphic designs for about 2 years and over. I wished to make my own photocopy shop and design center since I have been employed by a certain printing press in my locality.
But by God's grace and the help of the Zidisha society, especially, MR. PAUL GRAHAM, I have been able to open my own photocopy shop.
I really like it here and in fact, I am, I think a blessing to my area because many people could go long distance just to make photocopies, but ever since I bought (still owning some of the money) a used photocopy machine, they do not need to travel to such distance just for photocopies.

Loan Proposal

Please if I am offered this loan, I will use it to buy a second hand photocopy machine that someone is selling at a very affordable price which is about $150.00 but I already got some money so that I will add what I am requesting to it to make the money ready to purchase the machine.
I will earn a lot from it but there so many schools in my locality. And I think the students are going to benefit from my Photocopy and Graphic Design shop.

    I am really sorry for not sending the installments that i have to send.
    I have been in school and I should have said it to the 'BIG' Zidisha family about my condition.
    We are writing exam and right after the exam, I promise to start paying as due.
    Thank you.

    I am also sorry for not paying some of my past due loans. I was writing exams and now I am at home working to continue paying the loan.

    I am sorry I cannot pay as I should in full due to some issues I am having with the health I was not able to work as I should this week.
    I hope to readjust the installment to the older.
    Thanks for understanding

    Thanks Paul, Business is going on very well and I really appreciate your help, Sir. After I bought the parts of my machine I have been able to start t saving some money for my admission fees for this academic semester if I am granted admission in any tertiary institutions. And also every time I see my photocopier, I really remember what you did for me. I am short of how to thank you. All I think I can say now is that, stay blessed and God bless you..
