Esther Darko is thirty eight years old. She is a wife and the mother of two children who are currently in school.


Esther believes in hard work and dedication. She is very serious in her business efforts. She has been a retailer of eggs and maize for the past twelve years. The business has been very helpful to her family.


She wants to use the loan to buy a larger supply of maize and eggs to serve her customers throughout the season. This is especially important in the face of increasing prices due to the current food crisis in the country. Esther is a member of the trust group called Nkwabin Ladies. Nkwabin is the name of their local community. In this group, members use social collateral to guarantee the loans for one another. They use positive peer pressure to encourage each other to repay the loans.
