Project Report | Dec 14, 2024
Looking ahead to 2025 in Latin America

Bread and colada morada
Bread and colada morada

I hope all is well with you. It has been a great month on the projects with the final harvest of the school vegetable garden this year in Peru being shared between the families ensuring fresh produce over the coming weeks during the holiday with potatoes being planted in advance of the new school term next March. We will continue to provide the gas for the cooking and daily fruit each month in 2025. Meals will be supplemented with our school vegetable garden and more hot food can be prepared with the oven we built this year.   

The first half of the school year comes to a close in Ecuador with a short break over Christmas and restarting in the new year. We celebrated Day of the Dead with Colada Morada a fruit-based hot drink served with home-made bread. During the year we contribute to many cultural events which invariably include food!

We continue to expand Plan Huerto by sewing seeds taken from the first harvest in a new area which will benefit even more families. The initial Plan Huerto has been replanted for the second crop.

In the school we will continue to pay for extra food for the meals in 2025. As always we will celebrate cultural events including fanesca at Easter, Mother’s Day and colada morada for the Day of the Dead.

In Guatemala we hope to expand school vegetable gardens in the local schools to add vitamins and nutrients to the school meals.

Thank you all so much for your support this year which has allowed us to achieve so much and we hope you can continue to support the projects in the future - we have so much still to do!

Have a great 2025

Cheers
