Giving back through business education
Starting a business and giving back to the community is often the work of philanthropists or long-time business owners.
But it was more recently the result of work from students in the Entrepreneurship 30 class at North Battleford Comprehensive High School.
After milling about for sales options and browsing for an opening in the market, the team of four settled on homemade dog biscuits.
They undertook research to find recipes, cooked up six different flavours and had them cleared by a veterinarian to ensure nothing would harm dogs. They selected a few kinds and conducted product sampling, handing out testers to teachers and their own dogs to see if the biscuit pleased a canine’s palette.
