Short Summary
We are the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater Enactus and we have partnered with the World Resource Group to provide funding to 12 high school students in Linaca, Honduras. These 12 students will use the funding to start a self-sustaining hydroponic farming business.

What We Need & What You Get
We are asking for $10,000. This money will help the 12 students fund their entrepreneurial dreams as well as make an impact on the school and community. The breakdown of budget for the funding is as follows :
Megatunnel Greenhouse $4000
Internal Structures/Shelving $2000
Irrigation System $1250
Inputs (fertilizers, mineral solutions) $2000
Tools $750
Total $10,000
As with any donation, a feeling of exuberance will be had, but we also want to show you our gratitude by providing you with perks tied to how much you donate. These perks range from a simple thank you, a trip down to Honduras and other tokens of appreciation from the students and community of Honduras!
*Look at everything we can create with $10,000. Imagine what we could do with even more than $10,000. Once we have reached our goal, any additionally raised funds will go towards future Enactus projects and partnerships.
* If we do not make the goal of $10,000 the students will still receive the raised funds as we pursue other funding initiatives.
