Rose Mensah, 30, is a married mother of five children, three males and two females. One of her children is yet to start school. The rest are in the junior high and basic school. Rose lives with her children and husband in a rented apartment in Mampong in the Ashanti Region of Ghana.


Rose works very hard to support her husband financially to provide for the family. She is a food vendor. Rose prepares and sells a local dish called “Ga-Kenkey,” produced from corn dough. The cooked dough is balled in corn husks and cooked again. It is served hot with pepper and fried fish. She sells by the street in the evenings. Rose has been in this business for barely one year. She wants a loan to procure bags of maize and other ingredients in bulk.
