Our planting partners in Kenya continue to collaborate with us to reforest their pasture lands in order to regenerate their soils, food supplies and rain cycles. We are honroed to be able to continue to support these Maasai warriors who have struggled through years of drought and famine and are now enjoying the hope that comes with rain and planting more trees.
In combination with efforts to practice more holistic grazing practices for livestock, which is the heart of the Maasai way of life, planting trees has become a cornerstone of regenerative agricultural practices. Little by little, Maasai communities are recognizing that they have choices and power about how to solve their own climate crises and create a better life for themselves and their children. It is a long process to grow trees in these harsh conditions, but with regular paid upkeep and inspiration to keep planting, we are encouraged that our work is making a difference.
Thank you for your continued support for this ambitious project and we hope to report that we have obtained larger grant funding for even more expansion and empowerment in this needy region of the world.
