Dear Friend,

Warm greetings and thank you very much for your generous support to our initiative providing proper sanitation and food security to poor households. With changing climate, food is getting scarcer and poverty is the common lot of small-scale farmers. The government is trying to remedy the situation by providing cash incentives to poor families but the huge number of those needing support is just too much. There is a need to be proactive and look for non-traditional means of assistance. This reporting period, we launched the processing of high-valued crops like turmeric into tea and capsules. The capsule maker and the blank capsules we procured through on-line procurement process and this is successful. The turmeric capsule commands high price in the market especially for the health-conscious and the shelf-life is longer compared to the raw product. We are hoping that the marketing of our products will go smoothly in order to benefit a lot of farmers.

Hoping for your generous support.

Very sincerely yours,

Cesario Sayre
