It seems sh*t really can be interesting.
An evening of mesmerizing theatre at The Tarragon introduced us to the incredible talents of d'bi young and her one woman 'Sankofa Trilogy'.
Couple that with the generosity of family, friends and a surprising number of 'newbies'.
Together they have helped to raise almost $9,000.
That's enough for 180 sheep.
Almost exactly what we need to begin our next initiative, working with the 'Amizero (Hope) Group'.
Ex-poachers who gave up illegal hunting to encourage the preservation of the wildlife in the National Park.
As there are 567 of them, we will work in stages.
Beginning next week, Paul, our partner in Rwanda, will meet with the leaders of the 4 groups that make up our first stage.
147 females and 30 males, thanks to our supporters, will be sourced in the extended community, stimulating the local economy.
147 families will soon begin to benefit from the rich, nutritious compost generated by the sheep manure.
And not long after, the babies will begin to arrive.
Pretty soon, we'll have over a thousand sheep in the project.
And that will double a year later.
No shit!
Merry Everything!
Happy Always!
