Dear Donors,
Thank you for the substantial donation already received toward equipping Nigerian women with cassava processing tools. Your generosity is a strong encouragement to the women who depend on cassava farming for survival. May God bless you abundantly for your kindness.
In many rural communities, women still process cassava manually using crude tools. This method is slow, exhausting, and limits production. Large portions of harvested cassava spoil before processing, leading to income loss and food waste. With modern graters, pressers, dryers, and fryers, women’s cooperatives will produce garri, fufu, and cassava flour more efficiently. Training on machine use, maintenance, and packaging will further strengthen their businesses and improve product quality.
However, more funds are needed before we can begin procuring the required equipment. We remain hopeful that additional support will come in soon so the project can commence fully and benefit many more women.
Thank you once again for your meaningful support.
With sincere appreciation,
Ugbede-Ojo Dominic Kadiri
