About Me

Greetings! My name is Isaac Baccah and I come from the beautiful west African nation called Ghana. I live in the capital city Accra, and I am an IT professional. I enjoy reading and sports, specifically basketball and football.

My Business

I graduated from the University of Ghana in 2018, with a degree in Information Technology, thanks in part to the kindness of the wonderful lenders at Zidisha. After performing my National Service for a year, I have been trying to acquire a good-paying job for the past two years but, although I have been working for a tech company, the job unfortunately doesn't pay the bills. It turns out that most good-paying jobs require certain certifications. The certifications I want to enroll in include the CCNA and Comptia Server+. Thank you so much for this platform and thank you to every one of the lenders at Zidisha.

Loan Proposal

If my loan proposal is accepted and if it is funded, I would use the loan to help pay for my second-year university expenses: tuition, textbooks, accommodations, and meals.

Even though I sometimes receive financial assistance from my parents, and sometimes from my elder brother, too, their financial help is not able to be consistent; and even though I work two part-time jobs, there still just is not enough money to cover all of the basic costs.

Your help is needed and always is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

    Dear Lenders,
    Thank you all so much once again for helping fund my loan. I really do appreciate every one of you. I have made payments into the school account for my accommodation fees, GHC 1155 for the year. I'll use the rest of the money to acquire study materials and a few other things I need for this semester. Thank you all so much once again for helping me stay on campus. God richly bless you all. Amen!
