Graduation Day for the Paravets!!!

This morning we attended the ceremony for the graduation of our 9 paravets that have completed their training.  It was a wonderful ceremony attended by the diocesean Bishop as well as the District Mayor.  This really showed the working together of the Food Security program with local government!  There was a huge recognition of the role of the Udder Project; Rachael was asked to speak, as well as the certificate included both a spot for her to sign and the Udder Project logo.

In the afternoon we met with some members of the APAP group.  This is the local group of farmers that Rachael has been working with since she started visiting Kigeme!  So a strong relationship!  It was an opportunity to gather some info on what has been happening with them.  We also were able to clarify their plan for the bull!!

Could you imagine the partnership between Kigeme Diocese and the District!
What about these graduated paravets? Probably you are not aware of their importance! And you will soon know!

Sorry! The post of the August, 15 is not there. May be there is an internet connection problem as it was predicated. Otherwise it is still in preparation. By the way thank you for keeping everyone who reads you updated.
