COMMUNITY
TREE NURSERIES |
| |
In
Malawi, an area of forest the size of a football pitch is
cut down every 10 minutes. We want to open another 25 community
tree nurseries in addition to the 137 existing nurseries.
RIPPLE Africa supplies seeds, tubes, equipment, and training
and awareness activities. |

INTEGRATED
VEGETABLE, FRUIT AND LIVESTOCK |
| |
Funds
are needed to set up two integrated vegetable gardens —
one at the secondary school, and the other in the community.
These gardens will be an example to teach the community
about improved food security and improved nutrition. |

MOTORCYCLES
URGENTLY NEEDED! |
| |
Our
environmental project covers 4,000 sq.km, and our supervisors
desperately need new motorcycles. For the success of our
tree planting programme, it is vital that the supervisors
visit, train and monitor all the community tree nurseries
in their area. |

BICYCLES
FOR FOREST GUARDS |
| |
More
bicycles are urgently needed for the forest guards who sometimes
have to travel 10-15km between their community tree nurseries.
These forest guards are paid by the Forestry Department,
and RIPPLE Africa provides them with bicycles to help them
to do their job. |
