seeds and harvest

The orphanage has been working towards self-sufficiency for a while now.  They grow their vegetables in the garden they cultivate themselves, and get eggs from the chicken they take care of.

"Its dry season and we have started cultivating our garden ready to plant vegetables through irrigation.The electricity connection you did is helping us. We now have a top tank and a pump from the bore hole" - Christopher (the center's manager)

Libros para todos / Books for all

gracias a las pequeñas iniciativas que vamos llevando a cabo, podemos ayudar a que los nenes del orfanato que no están apadrinados y no van a la escuela también reciban clases en el propio centro.

aunque el dinero no llega para poder mantener el salario de las educadoras durante todo el curso, se han podido comprar libros para que así los niños puedan seguir avanzando incluso cuando las profesoras no están.

our efforts translate into small but very important gains for the children of the orphanage. 

unfortunately only a few of them have been sponsored and are attending school, but because of other initiatives we are launching, we are also able to support education in the center. 

we are not always able to maintain the two educator's salary throughout the year, but books have been bought so the children can continue their courses even when the teachers cannot be there.
