On 18/06/2021 Dufatanye Organization staff distributed banana suckers to 76 families in Nyabisindu VOH in order to help them get out of poverty. And also trained them more on saving and market strategy which will help them get money using the little land and harvest they have.
Before giving them the suckers to plant, we first gave them training on banana farming, their importance and how to take care of them during the dry season. Each household was given 10 suckers. Our staff was divided into two groups that went house to house helping to show beneficiaries how to plant bananas and how to take care of them. The event went well and the beneficiaries were happy. One of them happy as she was said: “I didn’t know that in the dry season, you can plant banana and grow up. This is strange, God bless Dufatanye Organization and their Donors”
Nyabisindu VOH is heavily populated by widows of the 1994 Tutsi Genocide .One of them thanked the Dufatanye Organization and donors for the support and said: “I am going to eat the bananas I harvested in my garden!”
Thank you our donors for this act of love. Every dollar you provide makes a huge impact to saving the community from malnutrition and poverty.
