Mary, 28, is single and a mother of two children who are in school. She lives with her children at Suhum in the eastern region of Ghana. She is a very hardworking young lady who has the responsibility of providing for her children. She always looks up to God for help. She sells ‘kelewele’ in the community. Kelewele is prepared from ripe plantains chopped into very smaller pieces, wrapped with paper and fried with cooking oil. It has a good taste. Kelewele is mostly eaten with fried groundnuts. She wants a loan to buy more ripe plantains and groundnuts to upgrade her business. She belongs to a community group called ‘Yehowa neme whefo’ which means God is my keeper.
