About Me
I am Chikpa Kwabena Meakpa, a 27 year old Ghanaian from Sunyani but currently stay at Nsawkaw in the Tain District in the Brong/Ahafo region of Ghana. I started my education at the St. James primary and Junior High school and then furthered to Salaga Senior High School. I then obtained my first degree at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and technology and currently work as a Pharmacy assistant at the Tain District Hospital, Nsawkaw. After sometime at Nsawkaw, I realised that most of the children lacked academic utilities so I decided to help them.Some go to school without school bag, others go with old and torn school dresses. Others have to beg for chop money (very common) and some also have dropped out due to these hardship. People in the town are kind and respectful. I like reading, listening to music and playing games.
My Business
I am a Parmacy assistant at the Tain District Hospital, Nsawkaw. I give out drugs to patients as being prescribed by the physicians. My work is very very useful because giving the right drugs to the patient is very crucial. I do this to help in the process of eradicating diseases from the community. I chose to do this job to help assist in the tratment of diseases. It is so sad when we always hear about the poor health of most Ghanaians. I jsut wanted to help my people to stand unto their feet stronger and contribute to the nation's development. Each month, I receive a salary part of which I use to cater for myself and family members and part to assist the needy children in the community. I want t use the loan to support these children so that they could also go to school to the hihest level and contribute positively to the developemnt of the country. I want them to become better citizens in the future. Thank you.
Loan Proposal
If I am given the loan, I will use it to assist in the payment of the children's school fees, buy books, buy table and chairs, buy sandals and shoes for these children. These children have tasted poverty for a very long time and are seeking for your help. Feeding fee for school is a very popular problem among the children. Some have to fast almost half of the day. I have been taking care of them with my own money but now I want you to help me buy enough academic utilities such as books and pens for their academic work and provide proper care to them. Their future depends on you so please kindly help these children achieve their aim.
