The distribution of laying hens, vegetable seedlings, fruit trees and manure in Nyabisindu village took place for one day. It happened on Thursday 03/02/2021 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The staff of Dufatanye Organization were trained on village distribution, and then took a 25 minute vehicle ride from Nyanza to Nyabisindu for the distribution

The 9 staff devised a plan and broke into groups to be able to distribute efficiently. The first group of 2 staff distributed laying hens, the second of 3 staff distributed manure, fruit trees and vegetables seedlings, the third group of 3 staff demonstrate practically together with the beneficiaries how to plant the crops and 1took pictures for reporting.

We first gave them training a month in advance on how to rear laying hens, on bananas, fruit trees and vegetable plantations and its importance

We distributed 152 laying hens, 152 fruits trees, and 2280 vegetable seedlings, 500gr of carrots seeds and one truck of manure

The distribution went well; the people were happy. One widow said, "Thank you very much. This support will help me and my orphans, including one child with severe depression from malnutrition and diseases. May God bless you”.The village leader thanked Dufatanye Organization and its sponsors for thinking about Nyabisindu village as it has a big number of vulnerable people much of this vulnerability caused by 1994 genocide. Another widow said after receiving a mango tree, “I’m going to start counting days for me to start harvesting on my own tree. I pray God protects me and my tree”

Two of the beneficiaries were chosen to be the ones to periodically check in on the proper growth of the crops and health of the chickens
