Dear Amazing Leadership Initiatives and Respective Donors,
Your donations will empower individuals and communities across Bauchi State, Nigeria, giving them the opportunity to form connections and address local issues using community resources. This will create a generation of leaders given the platform to encourage progress that starts at the local level but impacts many more. Contributions from donors give promising individuals access to entrepreneurial, leadership and project management training. These leaders then identify developmental obstacles within their communities, design practical solutions, and create sustainable business models to overcome those obstacles.
Our students create novel solutions firmly grounded in principles of social entrepreneurship. We have previously created in Bauchi, Nigeria businesses in: fish farming, welding, motorcycle repair, and computer education with job placement. Currently this project will help Maryam with her tailoring business.
Deer Creek-Macinaw has partnered with this institution and hopes to provide its staff with solutions that will help her expand her business by developing an advertising and marketing plan to attract new customers. Your encouragement of Deer Creek-Macinaw and their project will truly help change lives across the globe, as this business intends to be a model of public service and a center of change.
As a supporter of Deer Creek-Macinaw's project, Leadership Initiatives would love to have you involved if you ever want to help grow our programs, learn of ways you can participate, or have new ideas on how this team could best help their business partner. Please contact Executive Director Marshall Bailly at mbailly@lichange.org if you have any suggestions, questions, or comments! Your hard work and support is the greatest gift we could receive as we attempt to create a better world.
Thank you once again from the bottom of everyone's heart here at Leadership Initiatives. If you would ever like to speak to our staff in Nigeria or this specific project leader, we would love to communicate with you so you can personally see the change you are creating.
Wishing you, your family and your friends the absolute best!
Sincerely,
Leadership Initiatives
