"Building Hope by Building Business" The words Pain De Vie are French, and translate to English as the "bread of life". We are focused on building sustainable businesses in African communities that desperately need hope in a monetary sense. Life-improving wealth is not an unachievable goal with a little help.

WHAT
WE DO
|
||||
 We
provide resalable goods and the means to sell to the people of Guinea,
which is located on the west coast of Africa. By using the generous
contributions from donors we plan to construct an import/export business,
which can provide sorely needed jobs and an economic boost to the
local Guinea economy. On the US side of things, we plan to run Pain
De Vie like a for-profit business; however, the bottom line on Pain
De Vie's "income" statement is reinvested into Guinea - in the form
of education, health care, and other economy building investments.

WHY
HELP
|
||||
In country where 44% of the population is under 14 years old and the
median age is 17 it is easy to understand why they may a helping hand.
Like other African countries, Guinea's population has been ravaged
by disease and war and has left behind many orphans. Extreme poverty
(Annual household income is approximately $2100) and hopelessness
are a way of life. We can make a difference! |

By
utilizing the lightest distribution system in the world, the Church,
Pain De Vie will leverage existing and long standing personal relationships
in Africa to create a pull through demand for the products we distribute,
which are, in the US typically discarded as useless and considered
garbage. These items are purchased or donated and we export the
to Africa where our network of wholesalers are eagerly anticipating
the shipment.
