When I left for Niger last january everyone kept asking how they can help out, what they can send, and what they could do for me. So....here it is for ya! My next project is to bring a millet grinder for my village...so I'm asking everyone's help for the money to get it.
It's even tax-deductible. So it's easy, click here to donate now!
So, what will the millet grinder do for the village? Nigeriens use millet/corn/sorghum as a flour, so women spend the majority of their day pounding grains for their family into flour by hand in the scorching heat. This grinder will take an enormous amount of labor off the shoulders of the village women and girls. In addition to less labor, it will free up the time of the younger girls who have pounding obligations and are not able to attend school. There will be a women's group starting a business, which will allow them to use the profits to fund other projects for the village.
So how much to donate? Well, the total cost of the grinder is $2201. Allah will be pleased if you donate a mere 10% of your yearly income to get this filled ASAP. Okay, kidding, but any help will be greatly appreciated! Remember: Santa is coming soon.
So, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. And remember, tax-deductible!
