About the Cause

Posted by BF0642 in Burkina Faso on 03/14/2025

This cause aims to raise more funds to support the center's activities. Through this activity, we aim to train participants in agriculture, gardening, and especially okra cultivation. It will also contribute to mobilizing financial resources from the sale of okra grown to support the program. With the funds we will receive, we will dig a well, purchase two large-capacity motor pumps, and pipes for irrigating the site. We will also fence the entire area with wire mesh and iron posts to ensure greater safety in the field. In addition, we will acquire operating equipment such as hoes, watering cans, sprayers, safety shoes, etc. In addition, we will hire a professional or specialist in the field to monitor and provide practical advice on our activities. With this project, we will have a significant impact on the participants and the community. Indeed, okra is highly prized on menus in the Banfora region, nationally, and even internationally. The population will have access to quality okra at a lower cost.

How the church will sustain the Cause

To maintain and strengthen okra cultivation in Banfora, we will implement strategies to improve okra productivity by using improved seeds, soil conservation techniques, and strengthening irrigation. We will also promote and diversify market opportunities. We will also equip our participants and parents to promote this crop.
