We’ve had some early pledges of money towards getting this desperately needed food to children right away. This week we bought 100 bags of maize (110 lbs. each) as a first step towards getting through April. 503 children received food today (27 February). We also sent bags of maize flour to some of the nursery schools that operate in other villages. Bikes are a good way to transport in the village!
We are three months into the rainy season and the agriculture program is in full swing. We have two acres of cassava, thirteen acres of maize, and four acres of trees (long-term investment in reforesting Malawi). We’ve planted hundreds of trees around our land, distributed thousands of trees to the community, and will give another 2000 trees to 5 primary schools in the area.
