BonZeb continues to expand the number of acres under cultivation as the rainy season provides the moisture to assist the planters in their work. We have added additional teams to clear, prep, plant and care for new starts.
These new jobs mean many things to those we serve. More food for the family, access to medical treatment at the local clinic, ability to attend school (buy a uniforn, textbook, pencils, etc.), abitity to improve their homes and so much more.
Our recent trip brought donations of clothing, shoes, personal hygiene products, cleaners and more.
BonZeb is currently seeking local cattelmen to buy the leaves of our grass for cattle feed. This will help make the current project payroll self sustaining and allow for further expansion.
BonZeb is now ready to take the next step in their efforts to create jobs in Haiti. We are trying to finalize the purchase of a parcel of land to locate our kiln, presses and other tools used in the creation of low cost, high quality, smoke free charchoal, a formation center and a guest house. These are big steps made possible by your generous donations.
Please think BIG! We might not be able to do it all, but we can do something. And we can do something MORE with your help.
Thank you.
Tom
