Farm-Mission Global.....Let LOVE Lead!
Donation protected
Aloha and Greetings....
Meet Njodzeka George Fredrick Handel. Born in the center region of Cameroon, Africa in 1985. He lost his father at the age of 6 and was raised by his mother along with his 3 siblings. He is a holder of a Masters degree in Marketing.
After leaving his Tech job of 7 years with savings, a plan, and a dream...he had foundational success in his passion for Agriculture. Njodzekas dreams were dashed when COVID caused closure to all neighboring countries distribution channels, and he was left with the readied harvest.
He incurred enormous losses!!!
Njodzeka took all necessary steps to stay viable, liquidating nearly all assets. He has begun again with bare necessities overcoming many personal obstacles that arose and threatened defeat. (see above slideshow video)
Njodzeka chooses farmland locations, like Belabo that have the greatest impact to benefit community amidst abject poverty. Sadly, many people are not even able to put a simple meal on the table many days. His vision and mission include securing basic human rights to all people. Food, water, employment, education, empowerment. He is also diversifying his farming approach towards permaculture away from monoculture. Njodzeka is a man of deep faith, prayer, connection, and integrity.
Cultivating life-supporting options for women and children...
the planting of specific crops to provide needed materials for arts and crafts work for income to address:
1. Ability to afford education
2. Averting girls from early marriages
3. Skills and training to counter idleness (will provide basic tools and seeds for home gardens also).
THE FINANCIAL GOALS ARE FAR REACHING TO MAKE A HUGE AND LASTING IMPACT IN THESE COMMUNITIES:
The request list below is in order of need/priority....
$ 21,000 est. A good strong dependable Truck. (cost example: Toyota Tacoma 2018 with updated papers for the entire project.)
This purchase will be negotiated by Njodzeka with Elizabeth's supportive presence on Whatsapp. at the point of sale.
Roads are rural, rugged, and impassable without one.
For months in the interim Njodzeka has been taking a 7 hr. bus ride weekly (each way) from home to location station and then acquiring a truck driver for transport to farm location. His previous truck was sold in recovering from the loss.
$5,000 Providing the whole village community with drinking water, as well as connecting water into the farm via an irrigational system. Includes purchase of 8 motto pumps and pipes for 20 hectres of land (49.42 acres)
$2,000 wages for work done
$7,000 Purchase of farm tools and various farming seedlings. Women weaving equipment creating an income generating activity for 300 women.
$6,300 Education of children, giving more priority to girls. Target 100 children at $63 per child per year, paying their fees and providing relevant school needs.
$ 5,000 Building of basic temporary farm wood and thatched cabins for the workers in the farm, includes their food reserves for six months. Estimating 125 workers at 5 per cabin. Also 2 admin cabins.
$3,000 Running of the project for the first six months in terms of fueling vehicle and various motto pumps for water, first aid medication, cash tasks within the main time, and anti-Covid materials for the locality.
$49,300---Overall Totals
Integrity is the essence of all things. Transparency, responsibility, accountability and respect are life values for both organizer and beneficiary.
Receipts or invoices will be kept for all purchases in respect and gratitude to you...our valued donors.
I, Elizabeth Theriault will be withdrawing the funds for Njodzeka directly for the above plans and project. ALL monies will be transferred directly to him. This is only due to the fact that GoFundMe is not yet in Africa. This is the standard required approach for GFM as stated by their policies. Thank you for your trust and understanding.
We appreciate so very much, your time and energy to read, understand and consider this project, its positive impacts, and how you might participate.
We are extremely grateful for any and all financial contributions that may be possible, of any size.
We are also grateful for your prayers and good energy sent to this region, its land, inhabitants and all efforts being made for
Farm-Mission Global.
May you also continue to be blessed in all manners of being well...
Thank you so much, With Aloha,
Elizabeth Theriault, and on behalf of Njodzeka Handel
