Project Report | Aug 3, 2015
Planting more trees and expanding the reach!

By Shana Greene | Executive Director

Dear Donor,

As you might notice from recent reports that we have only been working in Kenya. We were approached by an NGO in Northern Ghana where there is terrible malnutrition and yet moringa would grow well. There is still the issue of water, but we know that once established the trees are drought resistant. If we set up bucket drip irrigation, we could keep the trees going beyond the season of greater water needs. To expand into an area where the poverty is palpable, and malnutrition is devastating to the children, is something we are committed to accomplishing. You as a donor contribute to just that and we can't thank you more for your ongoing support!.

We are happy to announce the partnership of VV's moringa project with The Center for Gifted and Talented Youth. These young people have written a book that was published by the United Nations Foundation. All of the proceeds from the sale of the book goes into buying seeds. We are very happy to share in our progress and what their donation is making. We have sent the seeds to Northern Ghana so the youth group will understand their direct impact. We'll post photos when the project is underway. 

Just like your donation and the donations you provided in the past, every time we receive a donation, we are excited to pass it on to ensure that the projects in Kenya and Ghana are sustained and doing well.

 Thank you for your donation!

Best regards,

Shana
