Project Report | Nov 3, 2020
Planting a fruitful future for Uganda

By Lizzy Rainey | Programs Manager

Dear friends,

First, we would like to thank you for your ongoing support of FTPF's work in Uganda. It is really encouraging to see donations coming in during these challenging times, motivating our team to continue this important work to bring the life-sustaining benefits of fruit trees to the people and landscape of Uganda.

On that note, we are in the planning stages for our 2021 project. Trees are being grown at our local nursery in Jinja, together with our longtime partners at the African Partnership on Climate Change Coalition, to be distributed to farmers and families next year. In addition to the income and nutrition that these trees provide for their communities, the nursery also employs and trains local people in sustainable, environmentally-friendly tree propagation and care, increasing horticultural knowledge and supporting families with skills and jobs.

If you are able, please consider making a donation today to support this program. Our goal is to plant tens of thousands of fruit trees in Uganda next year in order to create a greener, cleaner, and more bountiful future for all its citizens, and your support is critical in reaching that goal!

The FTPF Team
