Joyce Asu is thirty-nine years old. She is single but has given birth to one child who is currently in the junior high school. She lives with her child in a rented apartment in a busy commercial town called Suhum in the Eastern Region of Ghana.

Joyce works hard to be able to provide for herself and her child. She deals in pastries which she prepares and then hawks (goes door-to-door) to sell in her community. She also sells in a case on the street.

Joyce has been in business for five years and wants a loan to buy flour in bulk to increase her stock. She aspires to sponsor her child in school to the higher levels.
