This past weekend, G.R.O. in partnership with Business Development Trust from Maseru, provided 20 G.R.O. members and friends with a three-day business training seminar.  The program ‘BIZAIDS’ focuses on enhancing small business skills and our project partners learned about record keeping, successful business managment, marketing and sales.  HIV/AIDS was an integral part of the program as well, covering HIV/AIDS in the workplace, business policies, inheritance issues and wellness programs.  The program was conducted in Sesotho by a trained facilitator Mr. Lekoatsa and was held in Hlotse.

It was a fabulous weekend and G.R.O. would like to thank BDT for helping us make this important training a possibility.  We look forward to conducting future trainings in the upcoming months, helping small scale social enterprises such as the G.R.O. Artisans and G.R.O. Grannies succeed.  You can help support these trainings by visiting www.grofoundation.org and learning more about our grassroots enterprise philosophy.

Thank you to everyone who participated and our G.R.O. supporters who purchased the ‘Business Training Kit’ as part of the annual Gifts of Hope campaign.
