Non-Profit Success Stories

You don't wnat to pay any taxes do you? DO YOU!? Of course you don't. Have yo ever looked at a non-profit and wondered how they are able to get all this money and never have to worry about paying it out to the government? Well look no more. Finding a successful non-profit is right around the corner. At least finding someone ELSE that has one is right around the corner. You can keep worrying about fat burning supplements yourself.

Here are a couple sisters that run a Bee company and do pretty well for themselves and the people they work to help.

When their grandfather died of esophageal cancer in 2003, sisters Molly and Carly Houlahan wanted to do something significant that would both honor his memory and help fund the search for a cancer cure.

"He was our best friend and role model," Molly says. "It was the first time we had lost someone, and you recognize how precious life is."

So Molly, now 18, and Carly, 16, put a family hobby to work and formed Hives for Lives. The Devon, Penn.-based company harvests, filters, bottles, labels and sells its own honey, and all profits are donated to fund cancer research.

Top Entrepreneur Schools 2010

Entrepreneurs typically like to claim that they never needed college. Most of them really didn't. College probably helped in many aspects if they did go, but a lot of business owners are more "street smart" than book smart so college was probably a bit of a struggle. At the very least we learned some new fat burning exercises in our Phys-Ed REQUIRED classes we had to take right?

BUT, there is a lot of value and things that can be learned in business school regardless. Here are the top small business schools for entrepreneur's for 2010.

Being a Small Business Owner Is Great

Don't you love waking up everyday and knowing you have nobody to answer to? I know I do. I barely get any work done most days though because I'm pretty lazy. It takes a bit to get me rolling in the morning, but once I do I am really pumped to be at homes with nobody hounding me every second of the day. After wasting my morning reading news, watching Youtube videos, and readins aobut stuff like glucosamine sulphate I actually crack the whip on myself. Kinky huh?

I am one of those that needs a deadline to work faster I think. I need to go down to the wire and figure out if I can beat the clock.This is a blessing, and a HUGE curse at times I guess, but I know one thing: I am CLUTCH.
