Entrepreneurship Class Weeks 1 & 2
So I started classes March 2nd. The first week was relatively easy going. We were handed out materials and had an introductory session. Going into the program however, I wondered if I belong there. I knew that I had an idea and was accepted but I really wondered who the type [...]
Accepted Into NVTC FastTrac Program
Yeah!!! Just got the email a few minutes ago that I got into the program that is starting this March for one of the sites that I acquired. Persistence absolutely pays.

We also had a lot of supporters who cheered, yelled, and shouted letting us know we had fans in the audience. It felt great knowing that we were doing something that will be [...]

The objective of the trip is to go to a vocational and rehabilitation center for special needs kids and youth and interact with the kids there as well as helping with general repairs. A missions trip had been [...]
