Egg supply
Dear Friend,
Warm greetings and thank you very much for your generosity in supporting our work feeding starving children. We are aiming to nurture vulnerable children and provide them needed sustenance in order for them to become productive adults. If we don't respond to their needs now, they will have severe health and mental difficulties when they grow as adults and their families as well as the communities where they are living will gain negative impact. This reporting period, we provided 65 children and their families with weekly supply of eggs coming from local farms. Eggs have very high protein and with the supply, we are predicting improvement in the health of these children. We thank much local supporters of this initiative and we hope too to get additional support from friends living abroad.
Hoping for your continuing generosity.
Very sincerely yours,
Jed Christian

Small livelihoods
Dear Friend,
Warm greetings and thank you very much for your generous support to our project providing nutritious meals to children of very poor families. This project is indeed very important especially during this time when the severe and violent changes in weather patterns have wrecked havoc to farming and local livelihoods making farmers having difficulty making ends meet. The need to provide ways to improve their livelihoods is indeed imperative so that they are no longer dependent on food support and other hand-outs. This reporting period and with the help of local donors we are able to provide small-scale livelihoods to 158 very poor families living near poblacion area. The most sought after livelihood is food stall and vending business.
Again thank you very much for your generosity.
Very sincerely yours,
Jed Christian

Providing livelihood support for families

Vinegar production
Dear Friend,
Warm greetings and thank you very much for your support to our project feeding starving children. A series of unfortunate circumstances mainly brought about by climate change has made life difficult for families living in remote communities here. Long dry spell or extreme rainy season makes farming difficult and harvest less, making families hungry on long stretches. This reporting period, we designed a way for the families to be able to feed themselves by helping them engage in local livelihood activities using products readily available in the farm that has little value when sold as raw. For example, root plants like turmeric will sell as little as 20 cents a kilo but when processed the market vaue skyrockets. Water also from harvested coconutscost nothing but when stored and pasteurized can be made into organic vinegar and command high price in the market. This time aroud and with partnership with a local cooperative, we are able to assist 15 women and their families produce turmeric powder, organic vinegar, chili paste, chili powder and taro chips from produce in the farm. We aim to assist additional families like this as we continue to implement this initiative.
Again thank you very much.
Gratefully yours,
Jed
