A New Food Security Site - Mashiro

7/29/2014

Today we drove (or did some Rwandan dancing) on a rough road - 2 hrs - to one of the new Food Security Sites!  Definitely worth the drive!!!  What a beautiful part of Rwanda, very close to the Burundi border, as a matter of fact, so close we were getting welcome texts on the phones!  The cooperative in this area is made up of many people from many different denominations in the church.  They have a vision of the reduction of the poverty in the area.  They are working together, combining resources to work towards this end.  There goal is by 2020 there will be no poverty!

Leah and Rachael taught a group of about 130 farmers all about rabies:  where it comes from, what to look for, as well as what to do about it.  They also spoke on prevention of other diseases that can go back and forth between cows and humans.  They gave excellent advice on proper cooking of the meat, as well as preparation of the milk!
