Hello Everybody,
I am an American I do a varied art work, and live in the U.S.A., I made friends with two family's in the Philippines.
I found out that they need some financial help from time to time. My one family in the Davao area, needs help every month.
She has two school age children one 12 yrs and the other 7 yrs. , her daughter lives with her,
and has two babies, one 2 yrs, the other 6 mo.
So I have an idea what these people go through to have any quality in their lives.
This last month, she ran out of food and I ran out of money, until my SS check came through.
When I found out about jobs there, and how small the pay was, I decided.
I want to come up with a plan.
I wanted to come to meet my friends who I have been pen pals with for nearly 7 years now.
I was working toward this when I became ill with Cancer, that was October 2011, I have been
in treatment at the Shore Memorial Cancer Center, and MGH in Boston since then.
I am now nearing the end of treatment, and the last biopsy indicated no malignancy, . . so I am expecting to recover and continue with my plans.
However, since my finds are depleted at this time I am glad that I found you because it may be possible that you will like my business plan.
So, in searching and surfing I found your organization. I intend on submitting my plan to you for evaluation.
Correct me if I am wrong, . .
It seems that from what I have read here that it is possible,that we can contribute to our mutual interest. I want to contribute to your organization, while at the same time expanding the job market and economy in the Davao area and else where in the Philippines, while providing us with a home base that i might utilize with my two families of friends there.
First things first, . come up with a feasible business concept.
I have noticed that my friend there in Davao, has a fairly difficult time with her wash which she continually does day by day during most of the week it seems.
She tells me about her back pain etc., I am not able to afford to her a new washing machine,
at this time, but in researching a solution, I found that, "hand washing, and the like goes on through out the country and in many places in the third world.
I set my self to the task of designing a product that will help the clothes washing peoples of the Philippines. This is a product that can be assembled and or manufactured there in the Philippines, thus creating employment.
The advantages are, . .
Ease of Physical Stress
More than one family can use this.
Saves Time
Needs no electricity (although it can be adapted for electric motor)
Please see .gif graphic and contact me with your thoughts and interest in developing a plan to create a business asset that will provide for our concerns.
