According to a report from Paul, the collective seems to be grasping the bigger picture and rallying.
We are booked to return to Rwanda on October 10th, to see and hear for ourselves how things are going and where we go from here.
We will be in the town of Musanze (formerly Ruhengeri) from October 12th to October 18th.
In those 6 days we will meet with the leaders of the porters' collective and make visits to a few farms to see...
1)how the farmers collect the ifumbire (manure)?
2)where the farmers keep the ifumbire?
3)how the farmers use the ifumbire?
4)if the soil is improving.
5)how we can test the soil to see what it was like before and after they use the ifumbire?
6)where the farmers keep their sheep and how they look after them
7)a baby sheep being born, if possible.
We want to meet with the most important leaders of the ex-poachers collective.
We want to talk with them to make sure that they recognize our commitment and understand what will be involved in joining our project so that previous communication breakdowns are not repeated.
Amahoro!

I'd love to hear more about your group. An old friend of mine, Aaron Harnett facebooked your group, and it sounds really interesting. What do you do for fundraising? Is it run primarily by you and your wife?
