The villagers of Tratora Birkat Jaro have recently met to plan the Moringa Tree Community Forest and start planting Moringa trees!
These Moringa trees are known as magical trees.
Moringa seeds can purify water. It is so hard to get water in Darfur that no one talks about clean water - just the urgent necessity to find water. One Moringa seed can purify one litre of water. Just imagine that! Clean water at last in Darfur!
Not only that but the leaves of the Moringa tree have 7 times more vitamin C than oranges and 15 times more potassium than bananas - incredible!
The moringa fruit also contain calcium, protein, iron and amino acids which help the body to heal and build muscle.
The Moringa trees will not only offer relief from the unbearable heat for children, animals and their families but their roots will also stabilise the soil and help hold back the desert.
Just imagine the lives these trees will change - not ony now but in the future?
Thank you so much for donating trees and helping us get this far!
As always, there are many more villages, many more families, women, children and animals that need our help.
Could you help us give them hope for the future and enable us to plant more trees like this?
