8. Read some examples of successful school enterprises below:
Vidyadhiraja High School, India
Business: Incense sticks
Students at Vidyadhiraja High School set up a business making and selling incense sticks ‘agarbatti’. To generate start-up capital, students sold pens they made out of waste materials. Students were then able to buy all the necessary equipment and materials for their business. The business has already generated over USD $400 in profits, which the students plan to use to buy an agarbatti manufacturing machine. The young students want to help their community, so they are going to train local underprivileged women in using the machine and enable them to make and sell incense sticks too!

10. Ilowola Secondary School, Tanzania
Business: Bee-Keeping
Students at Ilowola Secondary School set up a bee-keeping business which is now staffed by a team of 40 students. The students sell honey produced by the bees and also make products such as candles out of beeswax. The teachers have even used the business to enhance teaching across biology, chemistry and geography classes! Ilowola use 40% of their profits to support students from disadvantaged backgrounds, and the other 60% to build bee-hives for vulnerable community members who are in need of income.
