Mushroom Growing in Nagaland
Mushrooms are accepted as an ideal health food, providing supplementary nutrition, and can provide a source of subsidiary income. Nagaland has a favourable climate for mushroom growing and this provides an ideal opportunity for our partners NARUDA to set up a mushroom farm run by the local community. At present, mushrooms are in scarce supply and their sale is easily accomplished.
General Update on Our Work
In Cameroon, due to the virus and civil unrest, our work is made very difficult. Notwithstanding that, we have a very loyal and committed local staff. Alfred and Philemon are doing great work getting help to our children, and assisting them into schooling and with medical needs. Furthermore, we are changing our project’s name there from the Sponsor an Orphan Project to the Support a Child Project. Another blog will come out soon with more details.

Thank you from Nepal - Covid Support
This is to update you on the appeal started last week to help the disadvantaged of Nepal cope with Covid 19. In conjunction with AAN Nepal, we’d like to give a HUGE THANK YOU to those of you who contributed to the cause. And, of course, there is still time to donate. A small amount of money makes a huge difference in Kathmandu!

Inequality in Indian Education
The following is an extract from the UNICEF website. “India has many accomplishments to celebrate in education. (…) However, out of 100 students, 29 per cent of girls and boys drop out of school before completing the full cycle of elementary education, and often they are the most marginalized children.”
