Estimate the Cost for Building a Small Cooperative Store-Warehouse
In order for the cooperative to buy and sell rice, it will need a store and warehouse. The property is owned by Hope Center (a non-profit compassion ministry). The cooperative would like to build a small store-warehouse on the property.
I have just asked someone to survey the property and provide dimensions so that an architect could draw a master plan and an engineer could give us a list of materials. I will post the dimensions within the next few days.
Discuss and develop a profit-sharing concept
The community has been considering a profit-sharing scheme instead of using the minimum wage to pay coop workers. They have consulted with an accountant-friend who has told them it is possible.
They would like to up the wage-rate in proportion to hours worked and profit-made by the coop. For this task, we are looking for people knowledgeable in business economics to help us work out how to do this and still comply with the cooperative code.

Research Funding opportunities - Teaching women and girls to make cloth sanitary pads
Some months ago a discussion started on Nabuur about girls in Kabondo, Kenya not being able to attend school during their period; a common problem in many parts of the developing world. Disposable pads are very expensive and alternatives don't seem to exist for most girls. They often just stay home for the 5-10 days per month that they have they period, rather than be embarrassed. This cuts heavily into their education. ( To see past discussion visit http://www.nabuur.com/en/village/kabondo/project/task/feminine-hygiene-p...)
