The best and most overlooked way to improve classroom education of any kind is to introduce the use of boardgames. I have taught for over ten years all over the world, and only when I use boardgames do students voluntarily insist on extending their classes for two, three, even four hours. Not only that, but they then show the most rapid improvement.\nCheck out the following websites for some useful background info.\n\nhttp://www.rpg.net/sites/edu/1-1.html\n\nhttp://www.rpg.net/sites/edu/1-2.html\n\nhttp://subscriptions.fasfind.com/wwwtools/m/208.cfm\n\nhttp://www.gama.org/uploads/nS/XX/nSXX7lbqv9r-V1glq3UvQg/GinEBrochure1.pdf\n\nGive it a try and you will be amazed. At least you will be helping to break the monopoly that the big textbook publishers have over the education industry.

www.witchvox.com\n\nYou can find a lot on this site that may help you.  I don't know if they have a listing for people in S Africa or not though.  But, I do suggest being careful announcing your religion there... some stories show they don't like that kind of thing there.

You can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.

Hello, \n\nBelow are websites that I think can help, they are for organizations that help people in countries other than America.  They help with Micro-loans to help you start your own business.  And as it grows you can continue to borrow more money to expand. \n\nYou can also look online for "international micro lender".\n\nThe second and third links are of other men in different parts of Africa that have used the services of Accion International to take loans and start their own businesses.\n\nAnd I don't know if you already have a business idea in mind or not, but African Black Soap and Unrefined Shea Butter sell VERY well in America.  I will put links to this as well.  If you can get a loan to purchase these materials you may be able to start making more money than the gentlemen in the links I provided (we can hope :). I recently paid $30 US for 2 - 5 oz. bars of natural black soap and 2 - 4 oz of unrefined shea butter.  There is also a women that lives in Africa that is selling the soap through ebay.   \n\nBest of luck to you and your family

I suggest you go to the following places, all of which offer their services for free\n\nSCORE http://www.score.org - this is a group of volunteers mostly retired business professionals and entrepreneurs with years of experience in doing business. They can give you free mentoring as you start your business. I have tried them and they are excellent. Lots of great ideas and just to be able to talk to someone about your ideas is great.\n\nYour local Small business development center = go to your favorite search engine and search for "[your state] SBDC"\n\nIf you are a woman, you can also go to your local Women's Business Center. Here is a PDF file of state-by-state locations of these centers http://www.onlinewbc.gov/wbc.pdf\n\nGood luck!\nIsabel Isidro\nFor information on starting a business, visit http://www.powerhomebiz.com
