Improve Livelihoods of 225 HIV-Affected Families
By Lucy Mathenge | Project Manager
Farmers have reasons to smile as they have enjoying the fruits of their sweat. They have worked tirelessly in their farms and taking advantage of the favorable weather conditions in most parts of the country although in other parts it has not been the same case. In some parts of our country it has been extremely dry and many families have nothing to put on their tables. It is very unfortunate for those families and our farmers from areas where they have plenty of farm yields feels that government should intervene to assist them distribute food to such areas where people are sleeping hungry. Our farmers’ groups have been delivering food in our offices requesting us to consider distributing them to the neighboring Baringo County and especially Kokwa Island where many families are spending days and nights without any meal. In early July, we distributed potatoes, vegetables and maize flour to the Kokwa community. Most of these food were donated by our farmers from Molo. On the other hand, our beneficiaries in this project were not left behind and they as well donated some food to the needy community. They really felt good for touching other people’s lives despite them feeling that may be less privileged but with this gesture, they feel proud. We appreciated their efforts and we always encourage them to consider giving back to the communities once they are in a position to do so. It is still raining in this area and our farmers are busy in their farms harvesting and planting new crops. Our beneficiaries have informed us that they have enough planting materials at the moment and still enjoying income from their farm produce. They express their gratitude to all who have supported their project and transforming their lives. Earlier on they requested support on water harvesting structures in their farms to tap rain water during rainy seasons and use the water during dry spell. They have reminded us on this support and we will embark on fundraising when economic status improves in most parts of the world. We welcome our friends, well-wishers and donors to put their requests in considerations and support them in any way possible. Thank you so much for your generous support.

Improve livelihoods of 225 HIV-Affected Families
By Lucy Mathenge | Project Manager
The progress in this project has been wonderful since we started. It has been a very long journey for all of us including the beneficiaries who have remained strong and healthy throughout. Our intervention has been a great support to many either directly or indirectly. Good progress reports were received during our monitoring and evaluation mission. It was great to hear testimonies from our beneficiaries, neighbors and friends who praised our work at large. They could not forget to thank all supporters in this project for their great support to them. They said if it was for this project, they could not be where they are and some could not have been alive they said. The project has supported them in their farming activities, agribusiness and their businesses as well. They said they are more empowered and they no longer fear their status. They said they are free to interact with us where they have even been conducting sensitization trainings to those who feels inferior and those who still stigmatize the positive people in the society. It was great to hear their positive stories which they freely shared with a lot of courage. During our monitoring and evaluation missions, they also shared with us their challenges with them where will be helping in addressing some of them and referring them to other service providers for more support, guidance etc. We have distributed some seeds, seedlings and planting materials to them in readiness for planting during this planting season. Thank you so much for your kind contributions to this project

Improve Livelihoods of 225 HIV-Affected Families
By Lucy Mathenge | Project Assistant
It has been couple of years since we started this project on improving livelihoods for HIV affected families. Thank you very much for walking the long journey with us and our final beneficiaries. In many different ways we have put smiles in their faces and we have been there to uplift them when they are down and facing many challenges. On behalf of the beneficiaries please accept our sincere appreciations and good wishes for this New Year. The project is on-going and once again we request for your support to continue uplifting our beneficiaries and their families. The year 2021 was conducive for farming activities and they remained busy throughout the year working on their farms and selling their farm produce. They are now ready for the year 2022 with a lot of hopes that the year will be even more fruitful than last year. Covid 19 cases are still bothering most of our beneficiaries but we are happy that they have all received covid 19 vaccines and majority have received 2 doses and the few remaining are just waiting for their dates. Initially some of them were a bit reluctant and confused on whether to go for the jabs or not and some of them consulted us on the same and we encouraged them to voluntary go for the jabs. At the moment we are in early planning stages for the year and we will definitely plan sessions with them as well as conducting monitoring and evaluation to understand the situation on the ground. Soon they will be preparing their farms in readiness for planting during the rainy seasons. We plan to support them with seeds and other planting materials to ensure they have enough for their respective farms. We pray and hope that all will be well in this year and our beneficiaries will continue with their usual activities as planned. The journey is still long but once we go together as a team it will be easier and less tedious. Once again we appreciate your continued support.
