Combating Climate Change with Agroecology

Dear Donor,

We are always happy to report on the moringa project since once a tree is planted, it grows. It also continues to nourish and provide an income to women who grow the trees.

This last planting was again for Muhuru Bay with the families who have children with Sickle Cell Anemia. The Sickle Cell Warriors as they are known, are families with the challenge of caring for critically ill children who need better nutrition to keep them from life threatening crisis’s. The parents grow the trees and learned how to care for them this last month. The last plants were planted at Mama Maria Clinic and Hospital.  This project puts the power in the hands and its planted at their homes to have ready access to this powerful nutrition. 

For those of you who supported this program, we are asking that you consider another donation or even a monthly subscription. We are buying moringa powder from the Kar Geno Women's Group in Asembo to provide the children of the Kipsongo slums who eat mainly corn porridge with no protein. The feeding program is for pre school children because of the high incidence of malnutrition. Malnutrition when not caught is chronic and it will effect the children their entire life. Moringa is truly a miracle according to those who provide the supplement of moringa in the children's porridge daily.

The benefits of a monthly subscription will fortify a child to face the world they live in with the intellectiual capacity they were born with and the stature they were meant to have. 

Thank you,

Shana
