Students and Small Business Owners Learn Together

In a small Honduran Christian high school, students are putting in practice the theory they are learning in class. The students, who are studying business administration, are going out in their community to help their neighbors implement and use basic bookkeeping principles. At the same time that the students help improve business administration, they are learning practicle lessons of how business operate in their community.

In a country where 25% of GDP comes from micro, small and medium size businesses, the sector's importance is well documented, but few have helped improve production and administration of these businesses. The students at El Verbo Christian High School are some of the few who are getting involved in their own community to help improve business administration.
