Our team in Ethiopia have been reaching more people. We have trained 55 young men and women in how to make beehives. They then make hives on their own - once the training is complete - and take the first step in establishing their own small-scale beekeeping businesses, selling honey and beeswax.
Kindu is excited. He says, "I am looking forward to my first honey harvest. I know the price of honey in the market and am planning to use my income to extend my farm next year. This will help me in the future".
Our project received a significant boost in August. The Tucson Quilters Guild of Arizona and Champlain Valley Quilters Guild of Vermont created an exquisite Sunflower Quilt - which was auctioned to raise money for our work in Ethiopia. Thank you to all quilters and the generous donor who bought the quilt.
