This ONLINE Soft Launch Event was created by Gretchen Smith. Ms Smith is the founding director of SOZO Belize (Foundation) and SOZO Belize (Consulting). The idea for both has been birthed out of 25 years of ministry and Smith began strategic development in writing in 2015 after 2 decades of thinking about returning to Belize. She had come to Belize from 1994 to 1998 and had a spent 20 years dreaming of coming back to do ministry and launch a business and finally in 2017 God opened the door for her to return to launch her business and ministry here in Belize.
