About Me

My name is Henry Dodoo from Accra, Ghana,(West Africa). I am a teacher. I teach English and French to adults and children. I teach English to Francophones and French to Anglophones.
My desire in life is to eradicate poverty and illiteracy from Africa in my own small way if I am able to attract the needed attention and support from anyone who shares in my vision of eradicating poverty and illiteracy from our continent. This is the main reason why I find the Zidisha platform very good and I have become a member. I believe the Zidisha platform can enable me attract the necessary assistance to help me realize my vision.

My Business

Like I have already said I am a teacher of English and French. I am not employed by the government or any company. I am self-employed. I teach people privately. Hence my income will not enable me to fully realize my vision.
Aside the teaching, I am into selling of airtime to raise extra income on the GSM platform.
The GSM platform will help me to recruit the unemployed youth in the airtime business. The Telecommunication industry is the gold mine of our time. Several billions of Ghana cedis is spent on airtime every month making it a gold mine. GSM platform gives one the opportunity to mine in this great gold reserve. By employing many people, I will be giving them a source of income and livelihood and eradicating poverty and through my teaching of English and French I will be eradicating illiteracy.
My desire is to have a place of my own, a classroom furnished with computers where students will not only learn French or English but also ICT. If later I can have a means of transportation, it will be fine for me.
My immediate need is to have a loan of $1,500 to enable me have a laptop computer and also to recruite people into my airtime business. This is why I joined Zidisha because I know that through them I will attract the needed support. God bless Zidisha and I pray for God’s blessing for them in all they do.

Loan Proposal

I will use this loan to expand my airtime business. First I hope to purchase a laptop computer and recruit people to sell airtime. My vision is to eradicate poverty and illiteracy from Ghana, Africa and the Third World. Through the teaching of English and French and ICT, I will be eradicating illiteracy and through providing job in recruiting people for the airtime business, I will be providing employment and in effect eradicating poverty.

J'utiliserai ce prêt pour étendre mon activité de temps d'antenne. D'abord, j'espère acheter un ordinateur portable et recruter des gens pour vendre du temps d'antenne. Ma vision est d'éradiquer la pauvreté et l'analphabétisme du Ghana, de l'Afrique et du tiers monde. Grâce à l'enseignement de l'anglais et du français et des TIC, je vais éradiquer l'analphabétisme et fournir un emploi dans le recrutement de personnes pour les affaires de l'air, je vais fournir un emploi et en effet éradiquer la pauvreté.
