Job Creation-Entrepreneurship

Job Creation is the key to economic prosperity……
A New Area Of Focus By the Rotary Foundation To Eradicate Poverty:
A $40,000 Global Grant enables us to impact -2,000 university students per year-$20 each….

11,000 University Students in Nigeria have been taught to write Business Plans by a Team of 4 from SGV.
Nigerian-American Sarah Philips, Rancho-Cucamonga Rotary, is our point person. Formerly Chief Legislative Officer of Kaduna State. She gets things done!
You can send a person to participate on this team, then take responsibility elsewhere next year, maybe in a land of heritage. We’ll teach you.

Select a curriculum –JA, Making a Job
Plan on 10 class periods
Meet with school authority or teacher
Train teachers to teach the curriculum
Offer Rotary mentors to the teachers

New Generation Youth Are Creating Jobs:

A survey in Sweden of youth 10 years after a high school JA Company class showed that 23%, or about 1 in 5, had actually formed a business.
But each new business also hired on average 4 employees -thus 5 jobs were created.
For every 100 youth that were taught entrepreneurship, 100 jobs resulted!
Pursue Job Creation in your community’s schools as well as Internationally. American Indian youth also offer great opportunities.
