Alice Antwi, a 29-year-old trader, is divorced and has one child, who is currently in school. She is a very resourceful young woman whose hard effort brings livelihood to the family. Rita supports her child by providing quality education through the sale of used shoes and ladies’ slippers. Selling used shoes and slippers has a very big market in Ghana, as brand new ones are very expensive for the poor. Therefore selling used shoes and slippers has created a market for many women like Alice in Accra and its surrounding areas.


With the loan, Alice wants to purchase more used shoes and slippers to increase her inventory. She believes the loan would help her save for her child’s education and also to rent a store for her trade.
