After weeks of work, we got a pretty sad (and a bit condescending) email from a potential training partner. The email limited our ability to use their training in our center. We went from LOTS of training to very little. So I’m taking the high road and making a show of good will to quite a few training companies we hope to partner with. I want to buy some training for our center instead of trying for handouts. It’s my hope that we can show we’re serious about training the desperately poor. My thought is that we can approach as a customer and see some real long-term partnerships develop.
I’m looking for a few people who might be willing to donate anywhere from $25 to about $200 to put training in our training center in Uganda. Each purchase will help countless customers in our training center. Here’s the list of products we’re looking for:
