Entrepreneurship & Livelihood Training

ENTREPRENEURSHIP & LIVELIHOOD TRAINING

Planning for a better business

In 2020, we added The Chalmers Center’s Plan For A Better Business and Livelihood Training that walks participants through a Biblically based model to start or improve their business.

Over the course of 7 weeks, groups explore topics such as examining business ideas, planning production and

costs, and preparing for unexpected events. In the final week, participants receive a livelihood training in soap-making or agriculture which provides both a practical case study and additional business skills.

Here's the impact we celebrated in 2020:

• 148 Seed Effect groups trained • 160 individual businesses started • 19 group businesses started
