Providing some inputs
Dear Friend,
Thank you very much for your donation to our project feeding starving children. We continue to implement our practical yet simple and effective approach of promoting vegetable gardening among our beneficiaries as a means to combat hunger and malnutrition among children. We include during this reporting period the growing of bananas and root crops like taro and sweet potato because they are also easy to grow and they pack much nutrients. We were able to support 90 families during this reporting period. Aside from farming inputs we also provided them with technical advice and constant field follow-ups. Hoping for your continuing support. Thank you very much.
Very sincerely yours,
Cora Sayre

Dear Friend,
Thank you very much for your support to our initiative mitigating the food crisis. Several events like climate change, loss of soil fertility, low capital of farmers have exacerbated the food crisis and there is a need to provide solution to this dire situation. One of the ways we approach this is by the training of farmers to utilize as much space in the home in order to grow food and using local materials that are considered of no value already. An example are containers, bottles, waste plastic, old tires and so on. The list is endless. The requirement is that the area is under full sun and that soil fertility is present and this can be done by recycling organic waste as fertilizer. This reporting period we were able to train and educate 120 farmers to do this approach. Hoping that you will continue to support us as we reach-out to more farmers.
Very sincerely yours,
Cora Sayre

Food via home gardens
Dear Friend,
Thank you very much for your support to our project mitigating food crisis especially in the remote areas. Food is scarce this time with the extreme heat condition happening due to the El Nino effect and we don't know when this situation happens. Already some of the lands are hit by grass fires and crops will not grow well. What we are promoting this reporting period is to continue with what we are doing best and this is in terms of food production by farmers by using small spaces around the farm and house and then in recycling waste and water to be used in the vegetable gardening activities. We are hoping that we can reach-out to more in order to stave hunger and malnutrition and your help is badly needed. Thank you in advace.
Very sincerely yours,
Cora Sayre
