Free Finan-Entrepren. Educ.to 1000 Venez. Students

As promised in our last report, we completed the new initiative in our path to include more youngsters in the project of providing them with the  knowledge to understand how to design their business models' strategic plans, while we challenge them to use these for solving financial problems within their communities.

In alliance with university volunteers and thanks to your crowfunding donors contributions we were again able to have a one day, 8 hours intervention at a subsidized school, where students attending their last High School year received a structured financial and soft skills program on effective communications, teamwork, strategic planning, public speaking and problem solving through Canvas, Shark Tank, Tool Box and other business plan models to use these in overcoming the challenge of creating a payment method, considering the country is going through a complicated scenerio of lack of currency availability, constant and persistent internet failures that oblige people to pay in other currencies for their expenses. We also faced to reach 42 additional students as a commitment with the school were we had previously attended the other half with funds of an allied company. So we accepted to prepare this new group and provided them with the required tools to succeed in the future professional lives.

Well prepared volunteers helped us in our mission and as a result significant solutions were presented by these youngsters after a long and challenging one day journey through finance and other skills classes. At the end of this journey we have felt proud of adding relevant content to their knowledge and to have contributed to their attitude to overcome obstacles in a country that present these on a daily basis.
