This innovative, thoughtful project is a community project that aims to bring low cost charcoal to the neighborhood's businesses, restaurants, bakers and homes. Your donation will go towards the purchase of 300 bags of charcoal, rental of a warehouse, and the transporting of charcoal to Paynesville. Their goal is to service 2,000 of the 5,000 inhabitants/business owners in the community. As stated earlier and important to highlight, 90% of the residents are dependent on charcoal. They have outlined a warehouse in the King's World Ministries community for the storage of their large quantities of charcoal. The charcoal will be purchased from the interior of nearby counties and transported back to Paynesville. This charcoal business will help the residents in that it will reduce the difficulty of getting charcoal for their homes/businesses and the monies needed for transportation to buy the charcoal. 

The participants future owners of this charcoal business are all business savvy with years of business experience which equates to confidence in the success of this business venture and the development of a thorough business plan.
