Thanks to your ongoing support, the Develop Africa Sierra Leone (DASL) team held another girls’ mentoring program on the topic of Entrepreneurship. Twenty-two young ladies between the ages of 10-20 years old in Freetown attended April’s mentoring session.

The mentoring session was a success with guest speaker, Luz G., making a virtual presentation on entrepreneurship and then having a Q & A session.  Luz identified entrepreneurs as problem solvers; she asked the girls to write down ten problems in their community that they would like to solve.

She later identified steps process for effective business problem solving; building brand (s) or product(s) that is a need or want and can be affordable. She asked the girls to divide into groups and form a business from the problem listed earlier and share it during the session.  Luz finished by congratulating the girls on their journey of becoming businesswomen.
