people start businesses.  The activity must be performed by a

Europe.

and is documented in writing by someone from the host country 
with a firsthand knowledge of the effort, the office shall 
designate the person donating the effort a member of the 
"Minnesota international volunteer corps" and may issue a 
certificate to the person attesting to the designation.
