Dear Friend,

Warmest greetings and thank you very much for your generous support to our initiative women-led agro-reforestation. During this time with great uncertainty due to the coronavirus pandemic and the severe changes in weather due to climate change affecting poor farmers, women at the forefront of agro-reforestation is indeed commendable. With crops and trees growing in abundance, food will no longer be scarce and there are a lot of benefits with the growing of trees. Trees provide timber, shade, reduce green house, reduce soil erosion and a lot more benefits. During this reporting period we focus our support to a women's association by providing them with farming inputs in order to grow high-value cash crops such as dragon fruit which is much sought after in the area for their vaunted health benefits and sweet taste. The fruit commands high price in the market. We will continue to seek and promote other crops that will support incomes to women farmers in the medium and long-term. Again thank you very much for your kindness and generosity. 

Very sincerely yours,

Michelle Frances Uy
