Dear honored donors and supporters,
Greetings once again from Kassanda Children’s Aid, we are happy to give you our first report about what is happening at the site of Stephen Baker Foundation Farm/KCA.
First a little history, we were given an opportunity to secure five acres of land by the Stephen Baker Foundation, donated in honor of Stephen Baker back in 2017. We have many dreams for this land but decided to first start a source of income by planting 450 banana trees. Unfortunately, we only managed about half of our fundraising goal by the disbursement time. Upon getting funds, we wanted to start setting up something reasonable, so we cleared the land, dug holes, and in between banana trees rows, we planted pineapples.
The idea came from another farm we visited who grew both fruits together in this way. So we divided the money according to where it was needed first. We appeal to everyone reading this report to share it so we can get more people to help us complete this project to be a success.
During this whole time, KCA had the honor of hosting a group of 10 US visitors from an organization called World Race Mission Adventures. They helped us to move the pineapple seedlings to the garden and in some of the planting. We loved having visitors and honestly want to thank you all you have helped us do so far. Please feel free to message us anytime or send possible connections with other volunteers.
Kindest regards!
