Priscilla Arthur with her colleagues and officials from Agri Impact Limited<\/strong><\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
Priscilla Arthur, a young woman with a Higher National Diploma (HND) in Procurement and Supply Chain, has secured a position as a stock officer through the Mastercard Foundation\u2019s Harnessing Agricultural Productivity and Prosperity for Youth (HAPPY) Programme, in partnership with Agri-Impact Limited.<\/p>\n
She is currently employed at NAPLE Betta, an anchor partner on the HAPPY Broiler programme for the middle belt coordinating the production of day-old chicks, birds, aggregation, processing, and marketing. Yedent Agro, a sister company, also provides quality feeds to poultry farms under the programme. Priscilla, among other things, manages the movement of raw materials from the YEDENT Agro Group of Companies and oversees the dispatch of goods.<\/p>\n
Although initially uninterested in agribusiness, she has grown to love the field.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m grateful for this initiative. Many of us were unemployed, but since this project started, we now have stable jobs and income,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve learned a lot through the HAPPY Programme, and I\u2019m eager to further my knowledge in the field.\u201d<\/p>\n
Priscilla Arthur shared this information when a team from the Mastercard Foundation and Agri-Impact Limited, PMU, visited various HAPPY Programme sites across the country in September 2024.<\/p>\n
The HAPPY Broiler initiative, a component of the HAPPY Programme, seeks to revive Ghana\u2019s poultry sector, reduce import dependency, and create jobs.<\/p>\n
Sandra Usman, a 29-year-old lady working as the Accounts Manager at NAPLE Betta, also expressed her excitement about the employment opportunity.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m very grateful for this opportunity, as it aligns with my field of study. Before this job, I was dealing in petty trade. I\u2019m also supporting my siblings\u2014one in Senior High School and the other in Junior High School. This job has helped me provide for their needs,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
The HAPPY Programme a partnership between the Mastercard Foundation and Agri-Impact Limited, aims to create 326,000 dignified jobs for the youth in Ghana, particularly for women and persons with disabilities in the agricultural sector. Focusing on increasing productivity in the rice, soy, tomato, and poultry value chains, the programme targets youth aged 15-35.<\/p>\n
The programme is being implemented by eight organisations, including Newage Agric Solutions, the National Service Scheme (NSS), Ghana CARES (MiDA), the Ghana Enterprises Agency (GEA), the Ministry of Food and Agriculture (MOFA), TechnoServe, Catholic Relief Services (CRS), and Jobberman.<\/p>\n
