No report at this time can start without some reference to COVID and the international lockdown that it brought into all our lives. As with many other programs we had to stop all our interation with schools and groups. Naively we initially thought that we would only be confronted with this situation for a short time, this was not to be.
Although COVID has delayed our plans somewhat we have not stopped our work in the community. It was clear that many communities struggled with food shortages and we collected and distributed approximately 5 tons of food to our local community.
We have been able to start our work again with recent reopening of the schools. Our wonderful environmental monitors have been able to start engaging with schools to prepare for our environmental education campaigns. We are also delighted that the school camp has reopened and we will once again be able to take our learners on camp. Although things are starting to open we will be sure to follow the strictest protocols in all our work to adhere to regulations and to protect our learners and environmental monitors.
We still have to raise quite a bit of funding to make it possible to roll out our program in full so do not hesitate to pass on our campaign. Your support is really appreciated and we would like to thank you for your kind donation.
