Since our last report we have been very busy and have installed 4 more rope pumps and boreholes in local schools, which are having a huge impact on students attendance and achievement as they no longer have to walk for hours every day to collect water. More information here.
We were delighted that our local secondary school, Zeze, has for the first time achieved 100% success in the recent exams. More information here.
We've also been busy with our tree planting schemes in local schools. We have grown thousands of local and fruit trees from seed in our tree nursery, which we have distributed to local schools to plant in their school gardens. This is part of teaching about the importance of preserving our environment and the fruits will provide much needed vitamins and nutrition.
We've also been expanding our egg production with the help of an incubator. This brings in much needed income to the community and also helps boost nutrition.
News of our success is begining to spread far and wide, and this month we were invited to talk about our programmes on the Deutche Welle radio station in nearby Kasulu.
Thank you for your generosity that enables us to feed our community.
With gratitude
Benedicto
