A big Thank You to all of our donors who supported our solar cooker project over the years! You make our work possible. We could not do it without you!
In the photo you can see the solar water pasteurizer in the back of the classroom (in the left corner). In the age of text messages (SMS) we can communicate with our Zahana contacts and our teachers in the villages on a regular basis at low cost. The minimalist report for November from December 15, 2011 reads as follows [text in brackets is added to provide context for the readers]
Fiadanana [our first village]:
[Both] gardeners were told to keep all baby trees for Zahana [planting 15,000 trees] project.

Last but not least:
Did you know you can make donations to any our Zahana projects at GlobalGiving as gifts to friends and loved ones this holiday season? This gift in honor of someone might relieve you of the agonizing thought: what could I give her or him? (and help Zahana at the same time). Or, the other way around, your friends might give you a gift card for your favorite project?
To make a gift in honor of somebody is easy: In a few minutes (and a few clicks) you can create a personalized greeting card via our project pages on GlobalGiving. Just click on the third giving option “gift or in honor of” right under the big orange “donate” button on any of our 4 project pages.
We just recently added our latest project Planting 15000 trees in Madagascar (#9470), which is eligible as well. For details about the ‘tribute card challenge’ please visit our website.
Thank you for your support.
Ihanta, Jeannette and Markus
