GRANT WINNER • ENTREPRENEURSHIP
A Business Built to Make a Medical Dream Possible
Online Business Supporting Her Medical Education
DUMONA CHARLES is a woman who is passionate to fulfill her dream of becoming a doctor and has been working hard to make it happen.
Now a fourth-year student at All Saints University School of Medicine in the Commonwealth of Dominica, she is well on her way to that goal. But this resident of the Caribbean country of St. Vincent and The Grenadines, who found that the expenses of a medical education were high, has demonstrated strong entrepreneurial skills to help make her dreams possible.
Starting in high school, she began a small business selling baked goods to help pay for her extra courses. In time she founded an online company to import affordable goods not usually available in St. Vincent. The proceeds of that effort have helped pay some of her student loans, while also enabling her to begin her medical education.
Dumona will be using her grant to help expand the services her online store offers, and to employ an assistant so that she will have more time to focus on her medical studies and additional income to complete her medical schooling.
