Africa
Community Moringa Project:
Black grow bags will be purchased
and Moringa
seeds distributed to the leaders. The children will be taught
farming principles
using the Moringa seed as a visual aid. A children’s
colouring Moringa book has been produced, in various languages
and will teach them the nutritional
and medicinal values of Moringa and can also be used
as educational posters for their schools and churches.
|
The little saplings
once established will be taken home by children within the
community and planted outside their homes.
|
|
|
Adult training
sessions will be hosted to educate the parents about the nutritional
and health benefits of Moringa. An educational Moringa booklet
has been produce and will be printed in Africa in either English,
Swahili, Tumbuka or Chichewi as a means of health
and nutritional adult education.
|
|
The children and parents will be educated
on Moringa's suitability as animal
fodder and other trees such as Mulberry
the Biblical Sycamore will be introduced with the Zacchaeus
story!
They will be taught all the various stages
of processing
Moringa and numerous Moringa
recipes.
|
We will be hosting
8 sessions with 5 different countries represented.
We have estimated the cost of
US $200 per session and any contributions will be greatly
appreciated.

Africa Rabbit Feeding Program:
|
We are believing God that we
will be able to establish a rabbit feeding program for each
of our African PowerClubs, including Hope PowerClub.
Moringa leaf meal (MOLM) can
be used to improve daily weight gain in rabbits
|
Moringa is non-toxic
to rabbits at least at the 20% diet inclusion level.
It has the potential to reduce cholesterol
level in blood and the meat of rabbits.
|
|
Moringa leaf meal (MOLM) could be used to replace
soyabean meal (SBM) partially or completely in rabbit diets as
a non-conventional protein source.
|
A major constraint to livestock production
in developing countries is the scarcity and fluctuating
quantity and quality of the year-round feed supply. To be
able to substitute with leafy plants like Moringa is a great
benefit.
