Experts left and right!

October was a month of many visitors -- and many of them experts, helping the College where help is needed!

Two Dutch experts from PUM came to help us analyze our hog, meat processing, coffee and vegetable production businesses. These businesses came to be to help the College earn money and serve as a rural business model. These businesses, however, were not working up to speed, so with the help of Mark Versteeg and Henk Faber, we got some good advice about making our businesses more profitable.

We were also blessed with the presence of Juan Velasco, the husband of Suzanne Dulle and co-founder of conBolivia. Juan worked with seniors from our Ecotourism program, helping them develop business plans for their graduation requirement, and had lots of good ideas for fundraising.

Thank you to these amazing people and their skills.
