About
Avocados are not only tasty, they are a wonderful source of nutrition and income for families in Wangama. There is increasingly a demand for avocados in nearby towns and families benefit greatly from selling this fruit. Our Avocado Tree Project began in 2018 and continues to flourish.
In 2019, the orphans groups at each of the 3 primary schools in Wangama joined the Avocado Tree Project for income generation for the orphans groups. Funds from avocado sales will be used to purchase uniforms, school supplies, and savings for technical or secondary school education.
Tree Distribution
- 64 trees to 48 families
- 1 avocado tree was planted in the courtyard of the Health Center to commemorate the growing health of Wangama
- Orphans groups at the 3 primary schools received 33 trees each (99 trees total)
