Sorry I had not been able to up date the blog in the last day or two we made our journey to Kumasi and the hotel we were staying at was having internet issues, but it was all fixed today so here I am. After meeting with the Ghana Credit Union Association in Accra we started our journey to Kumasi. It was a 5 hour drive of which 2 hours was on roads that I couldn't even describe how bad they were, but we made it. We started working with our 1st Credit Union yesterday, Teck University Credit Union here in Kumasi. This Credit Union is somewhat more advanced than some of the other Credit Union's here in Kumasi largely due to their closed bond association with the University. Due to this relationship the University has designed a Banking System for the Credit Union which they also provide on going techincal support for, so life has been made a bit easier for the staff and Management. The Credit Union has asked us to provide them with support in regards to deliquency and some savings product ideas. We have been working with the staff members Evelyn, Charllote, Johnson, Alex and the Manager Mr Audasi as well as the Board of Directors and Committe members. It has been wonderful sharing ideas and learning about their issues, it has been really interesting to see that our issues really do not differ that much from theirs, so we are all learning alot during this time we have together. We had the opportunity to stop in at a few other Credit Unions this afternoon just to say hello and received very warm welcomes, and were asked alot of questions. I have included some of the pictures I was able to take today I hope everyone enjoys them. From the African city of Kumasi, Medase (thank you) and Good night. Lennie Hampton
