About Me
Born in Bobo Dioulasso, my married name is Elisabeth Oué Traoré. Being married and a mother, I've had to balance my life as a married woman with my professional life as a merchant, and it's for this reason that I set up a shop selling shoes for women and children located in the city of Bobo and not far from the Sangoulé Laminaza stadium. I went to school and graduated high school and I know how to use computers. Currently I am president of the association called "Balimaya" which means Brotherhood. Thanks to my sister I heard of the microfinance Zidisha, and this is why I come to you now to apply for funding with the aim to expand my small business. Thank you.
My Business
I am a merchant thanks to my mother, and it is an activity I practiced from my childhood during the holidays. Currently I travel a lot in Togo, specifically in Lomé to buy wholesale products: shoes, hair extensions, as well as clothes for women and children. For example, a shoe can be sold for a profit of 400 CFA francs and more. I sell an average of twenty per day and when it's a holiday season such as Tabaski, Christmas, or New Year I can reach forty per day. I would like, then, to benefit from your support to achieve my goals. All the best to you.

I would like to receive from you honorable lenders sum of $ 996 with the aim to do before the school year on a trip to Togo LOME to buy in quantity and quality sufficient loincloths I sell back Bobo. For this trip I would add my own in the amount $ 2,575 for a total of (2575 +996 = 3571) intake.
