EQUIPPED FOR LIFE:  SKILLS TRAINING
Without the proper life skills, people fail to flourish.  Many things in these locations could change if the proper leadership, mentoring and opportunity is given.  Equipping is the key. Our purpose statement is clear:

                                              Provision without equipping breeds dependence.
                                             Provision with equipping develops independence.
                                             Independence leads to self-sustaining enterprise.


Jon begins with basic guidance through mentoring, accountability and example.  He then gives basic instruction on a variety of areas: motorcycle repair, construction, welding, woodworking, mechanicals, etc.  Every location is different and has its own particular needs.  The Equipped for Life: Skills for Life pages will show some examples.
