My name is kwasi benjamin. I come from a family of ten, and am the youngest in my family. I received my childhood education at John Wesley Methodist School. I was there until Class 5, when one of my aunts decided I should change from a government school to a private one in order for me to have a better education. Due to this decision, I am now the only one among my siblings pursuing a university education. Unfortunately, my father is retired and on pension, and my mother has been out of business for a long time. The only who has been helping me lately with my educational and living expenses is my aunt; however, she also just recently retired.My hobbies are reading, playing football (soccer), and listening to music.
I make the best use of the little money I receive from my parents. I also try to choose lecture times in such a way that I can have some free time to go out and try to make some money. At the central Market, I move from store to store, helping people pack up their goods. At times, I get lucky and get the chance to sit by a store to help the vendor sell goods. I use the little money I earn on reading materials and other necessities for school and life. I manage, even though it's really not enough.
with the loan from zidisha lenders i will be able to stock my small retail shop and also this will let my parents look after the shop and help me with the profit from it on my education. This will ease the pressure on the them and also on me. With $100 i will be able to buy more drinks which i sell i will make a profit of $30.
