The Montana Indian Business Alliance (MIBA www.mibaonline.org ) held a Native Youth Entrepreneurship conference in January and below is my resources handout. There are many great related resources on the web which I'm busy collecting and plan to disseminate. Since MIBA was formed 2 years ago, similar orgs have popped up in half a dozen states following this model. There is talk of a national meeting for these orgs.

Web Raising Events:
After Lone Eagle train-the-trainers sessions in Wolfpoint, MT, Fall 2007, for the Fort Peck Community Ecommerce Incubator grant listed above, local trainers taught youth how to create their own free ecommerce pages complete with affiliate programs with Amazon.com and Walmart which return commissions of 10-17% for items purchased online. See "Rez Bread" at http://snarf2000.tripod.com/ which has Walmart and Amazon products posted. We held Web-raisings where everyone creates a free ecommerce site in less than an hour.
