Treasurer of the project "Africa on Stage"



While working on the project READS , I succeeded  in having time to be the treasurer of the project "Africa on stage". We had to raise funds trying to convince companies to help us for our project. My job was to forecast the budget and to control the expenses. I had to create the balance sheet we had to show to the companies. We won the trophy of the best student project in 2006 for showing people a great image of The African Continent: our objective was to show all the future managers that Africa can be a land of opportunity. We suceeded in convincing Air france, Celtel and Réseau Télécom for example
