Plant 40,000 Trees In Northern Rwanda

Dear Patrons,

Thank you so much for the support that you have provided so far for planting 40,000 trees in Northern Rwanda. We are glad to share a detailed report for land six  fencing work  plan that we  are planning to do  atat location Rwanda: 724+ CHC Mugambazi (Google Plus code). This land is having a total of 28500 trees.
. This area’s name is Butangamundu in Mugambazi, the fencing will be  done is around  80 meters   for protecting a key area of the land. This will highly protect our trees from disturbances from animals like goats, cows, and sheep, as well as from the disturbances caused by the humans.

After the completion of the fencing activity, the most important part will be to do maintenance. Actually, the maintenance includes pruning the area properly in order to keep the trees healthy and strong, and as the water is the food for our trees and plants – that’s why effective watering is one of the most important ways to care for and maintain, so watering might be needed during the dry season. Also. As soil compaction prevents water and oxygen from infiltrating the tree’s roots, we will make sure that the soil is not compacted. We will be doing mulch about 6 inches from the base of your tree so that we cannot damage our trees roots.

We promise you to keep sending updates about this project, and we request you to keep supporting our project so that we can keep working and achieve our goals. You could also consider doing a monthly recurring donation for our project, which will help us with our ongoing work. The link for the monthly recurring donation is mentioned below in the report.

We thank you for everything that you have done for our project, and we look forward for your continued support.

Thanks & Best Regards.

Dear Patrons,

We are very happy to thank you very much for all the support that you have provided so far for our Rwanda forestation project.

We are so excited to share with you the progress of sapling planting activities for land six. We planted saplings at location Rwanda: 724+ CHC Mugambazi (Google Plus code).

On Wednesday and Thursday, the  29^th and 30^th of march 2023, we planted additional 6500 saplings and we have completed the tree planting for land six with a total of 28500 trees.

We take this opportunity thank students from Muyanza Primary school and their valuable and active participation in this forestation project. In this activity on the second day, a total of 32 students participated in the planting. RWAYDAVO Volunteers and project workers helped in digging holes deep enough to cover the tree's root ball. The student would remove the root-ball from the container and place the tree in the hole. It was amazing to see children doing such amazing work! They enjoyed the activities very much the activities. Rwandan Youth Development and Voluntary organization volunteers and leaders ensured that the activities happened as planned.

We would like also to let you know that the saplings we planted for the first time all are growing well and none of it died due to any reason, this time is a rainy season and a good time for tree planting. I would like also to let you know the trees we planted; 99% are eucalyptus, So, we have completed sapling planting on Land 6.  

The planting of trees was also very much supported by the community leaders and the district leaders. They have also requested our organization to help in reforestation in other parts of the Rulindo district, and our organization promised for replication of the project if there is enough funds. 
For fencing Land 6, we are planning to start basic activities as soon as possible. We need to do fencing of the land 6, because we want to protect the land in which the trees are planted from animals like goats, cows, and sheep, as well as from the disturbances caused by humans. After all these activities we will do maintenance.

We need ongoing funds for the regular maintenance of the saplings and the land 6. The maintenance will require maximum care and supervision to make sure that trees are growing well. This activity will also include pruning the area properly in order to keep the trees healthy and strong, Water is food for our trees and plants – that’s why effective watering is one of the most important ways to care and maintain. Also, as the soil compaction prevents water and oxygen from infiltrating to the tree’s roots, we will make sure that the soil is not compacted. We will be doing mulch about 6 inches from the base of your tree so that we cannot damage our trees roots.

We request you to donate generously for our project so that we can keep working and achieve our goals. You could also consider doing a monthly recurring donation for our project, which will help us with our ongoing work.  The link for the monthly recurring donation is mentioned below in the report.

We thank you for everything that you have done for our project, and we look forward for your continued support.

Dear Patrons,

We are very happy to thank you very much for all the support that you have provided so far for our Rwanda forestation project.

We are so excited to share with you the progress of sapling planting activities for land six, this time; Friday the 17th, and Saturday the 18th of March 2023, we planted around 12,000 trees in land six.  We planted saplings at location Rwanda: 724+ CHC Mugambazi (Google Plus code). This area’s name is Mugambazi (colline Mwite). Because this area I a hill area, the anti-erosion holes created before the tree planting activities will help to maintain water after the rain, hence our trees will grow quickly. We would also like to inform you that,  it started raining the next day after the two days' planting activities. There is no risk that some saplings might not grow as planned. 

We take this opportunity to thank students from Burega sector leaders and communities for their active participation. We would like also to thank Muyanza Primary school, Burega primary school, and Butangamundu primary school students and leaders for their valuable and active participation in this forestation project. In this activity,  During the project activities, 35 RWAYDAVO Volunteers and project workers helped in these two days' planting activities to be successful. The trees we have planted this time  100% are Eucalyptus. 

For fencing Land 6, we will start activities soon after land six is complete. The detailed report will be shared after the planting of trees for land six will be completed. We will be using fencing the land because we want to protect the land 6 in which the trees are planted from animals like goats, cows, and sheep, as well as from the disturbances caused by humans. After all these activities we will do maintenance to make sure our trees planted are growing well.

To keep our activities going well as planned, we need ongoing funds for the regular maintenance of the saplings and the land. The maintenance will require maximum care and supervision to make sure that trees are growing well. This activity will also include pruning the area properly to keep the trees healthy and strong, Water is food for our trees and plants – that’s why effective watering is one of the most important ways to care for and maintain, so watering might be needed during the dry season in some lands. Also, as soil compaction prevents water and oxygen from infiltrating the tree’s roots, we will make sure that the soil is not compacted. We will be doing mulch about 6 inches from the base of the tree so that we cannot damage the roots of our trees. We will do replacement of those who may die because of different factors, 

We request you to donate generously to our project so that we can keep working and achieve our goals. You could also consider doing a monthly recurring donation for our project, which will help us with our ongoing work.  The link for the monthly recurring donation is mentioned below in the report.

We thank you for everything that you have done for our project, and we look forward to your continued support.

Then students would remove the root ball from the container and place the tree in the hole. It was amazing to see children doing such steps successfully and motivated in planting! Students enjoyed the tree-planting activities. Rwandan Youth Development and Voluntary Organization Volunteers and leaders ensured that the activities happened as planned.

We would like also to let you know that the saplings we planted since the beginning are growing well and none of it died due to any reason. This is because it is the rainy season.

Dear Patrons,

Thank you so much for all the support that you have provided so far for our Rwanda forestation project.

We are happy to let you know that we have the preparation of Land 6 has finished,  We are looking forward to planting more than 10,000 saplings by the end of the first two weeks of March  2023.

In this report, I wish to share with you an update on how the activities of preparing were ( see attached photos).  So far we have finished the preparation, and the holes, where we will put the saplings, have been prepared. 

During the preparation of this land, we did this by weeding out the existing small plants, shrubs, and other unwanted growth so that the land can be made suitable for planting the saplings.  After that activity, we created anti-erosive terraces that help to retain water because this is a hill land, then we have created holes well arranged, where we will plant /put our saplings

We request you to donate generously to our project so that we can keep working and achieve our goals. You could also consider doing a monthly recurring donation for our project, which will help us with our ongoing work.  The link for the monthly recurring donation is mentioned below in the report.

We thank you for everything you have done for our project, and we look forward to your continued support.
