I am interested in what you have found in seeking people for your cause. I am in the process of developing links between persons in West Africa interested in starting up new samll businesses, with these Africans to be linked by e-mail to appropriate persons in the USA with skills and expereience related to the proposed business. The contacts in the USA are to serve as mentors, not fundrs. They will provide advice, research the USA for pertient information, help develop business plans, coach, inspire and otherwise do all possible to set one on a good course in setting up a new business.
