Running your own business is hard work… That’s what the students of the Sancta Maria Institute discovered during their sales project in support of the charity Go For Lander.

As part of their exploratory project in economics and organization, the students worked in small groups. They set up their own business (coming up with a name, logo, and slogan), conducted product research (tasting, comparing prices, calculating profit margins…), practiced persuasive sales arguments, learned to describe the charity’s mission, went out to do the real work—door-to-door sales—and of course, handled all financial and administrative tasks with precision and attention to detail.

It was a wonderful experience in which they learned to work as a team and to value each other’s strengths. Every talent matters!

With great pride, they were able to donate €655 in profit to the non-profit organization GO FOR LANDER. Budding economists with a heart for volunteer work, a strong work ethic, and the right team spirit.

So proud of the students of 2024-2025 😍
