Combat Malnutrition with Beekeeping in South Sudan

Thanks for your continued support to promote Beekeeping.
The wild monkeys destroyed beehives a year ago which had an adverse impact on a project pushing it to a scratch level. We are adding a funding goal by and additional of $10,000-, because of this. We are appreciate your understanding in this matter.

Your gift and donations from different contributors will help make ten new hives in 2015 to add to 50 hives produced in 2014. Hope Ofiriha distributes these bee hives to 11 households.

Although the road to a project is always too bad, and unpaved. At this stage, it is manageable to drive at a start of a rainfall. The security in the County has been inadequate since earlier March. Before a project distributes hives to beneficiaries - Hope Ofiriha makes sure a truck can go cautiously and return safely. We are still contemplating a date, and once set up the goods will be transported to a site in this April.

Hope Ofiriha will be sending you a new field update report after a quarter to inform you with stages we are taking to rebuild a project, and how your contribution is making the impact in the ground.
