WE CAN BRING CHANGE TO OUR COMMUNITIES!

PROJECT : The Garden

The Garden will become a hub of positivity, where seeds of restoration, love, and joy. Our first project “The Garden”, an organic farm will be a place for the community to express itself in sowing seeds of hope and freshness of life. The Community peace will be sown.
We would appreciate any assistance from agricultural organisations or the private sector. Help us make the change!
