MTN Ghana Foundation will provide financial assistance to 150 entrepreneurs, persons with disabilities, and women in the Bono, Bono East, and Ahafo regions. This initiative is part of the Foundation's Economic Empowerment pillar, which aims to support viable businesses by offering additional capital for expansion. The MTN Ghana Foundation, in collaboration with InnoHub, will distribute funds ranging from GH¢20,000 to GH¢50,000 based on the specific needs of each business.
The program will be implemented over a five-year period, with the current phase targeting the Bono, Bono East, and Ahafo regions. Previous phases have covered Accra, Takoradi, Kumasi, Cape Coast, the Northern, Upper East, and Savannah regions. Mr. Robert Kuodzo, Manager of the MTN Ghana Foundation, emphasized the importance of small businesses in driving local economic development and creating employment opportunities, particularly for young people and persons with disabilities.
The supported businesses include small-scale farming, shoemaking, food vending, and other entrepreneurial activities. The Foundation encourages beneficiaries to utilize the funds responsibly, focusing on activities that will expand their businesses and generate sustainable income.
