🌍 Last week in Kwanda ... 🚀 We had 30 new villagers join us at Kwanda. We're growing at a fast clip! 🇰🇪 The village passed its first vote of 2024, voting to release £1,400 in funding to develop a vertical garden prototype and build 20 vertical gardens in Wamunyu, Kenya. 💪🏿 Faith Angwet joined the Kwanda team as a volunteer to help with our marketing efforts. 🇳🇬 We had scouts in Nigeria explore potential projects and innovators that align with our mission here at Kwanda. 👷🏿 We started building a 'Jobs to be done' database we plan to share with future volunteers so they get a clear picture of the gaps we need to fill. 📈 We plotted our villagers' demographic data, which led to some interesting insights: 65% of our villagers are women, and 35% are men. Villagers typically work in non-profit or technology. ... Here's to another great week. kwanda.co

When weighing up the pros and cons of volunteering vs the cost of living crisis, there is definitely something to be said for trying to donate some of your time, however small that may be, as you may discover that it improves your mental health, physical health, gives you a ‘way in’ to a career in conservation if you are just starting out or maybe even helps you completely change your career path.

🌱 Cultivating Hope through Community Gardening & Permaculture Education 🌱 At NB2FS, we believe in the power of nature to heal and transform lives. Our mission is to end homelessness for foster youth aging out of care by providing them with opportunities to thrive. Community gardening and permaculture education initiatives not only promote environmental stewardship but also enhance the health and wellbeing of these resilient young individuals. 🌿 Why It Matters: 👩🌾 - Social Impact: Permaculture gardens are safe havens where foster youth can connect, learn, and grow together, fostering a sense of community and belonging. 🤠 - Natural Positivity: By engaging with the land, participants gain a deeper appreciation for nature and develop skills that contribute to sustainable living. 🌞 - Environmental Benefits: Community gardening and permaculture practices enrich the soil, support biodiversity, and create green spaces that benefit the entire community. 🌎 Join Us in Making a Difference: We are seeking funding for land acquisition and conservation initiatives to expand our impact. Your support can help us secure acres of land dedicated to these transformative projects. By donating, you are not only investing in the environment but also in the futures of young people who need it most. 🤝 How You Can Help: 💹 - Funding: Contributions will go towards acquiring land and developing our permaculture sites and community gardens. 🏝 - Land Donations: If you have acres of land that you are willing to donate, your gift will directly support our conservation and education efforts. Together, we can cultivate a brighter future for our foster youth and our planet. 🌟 #CommunityGardening #Permaculture #EnvironmentalStewardship #FosterYouth #Conservation #Nonprofit #SustainableLiving #DonateLand #SupportYouth 📞 Contact Us: To learn more about how you can support NB2FS, please reach out to us at 470-351-8751 🌐 Visit our website: NB2FS.com #Hope #Growth #Community #Nature #Future #Nonprofit #Charity #Fundraising #Philanthropy #Donate #SocialImpact #GivingBack #CommunityService #Support #Volunteering #Impact #NonprofitOrganization #Cause #MakeADifference #HelpingOthers

Here are 3 impactful ways to give back to the cats in your community. 🌟 Join a TNR Program: Take action against cat overpopulation by joining a Trap, Neuter, Release (TNR) program. Connect with a local shelter or organization that offers this fantastic initiative. Through TNR, we can help control the cat population, reduce homelessness, and improve the well-being of community cats. Every spayed or neutered cat counts! 🌟 Become a Guardian Angel: Step into the role of a community cat caretaker. Create cozy outdoor shelters using large plastic containers, providing safe havens for these beautiful souls. Fill the shelters with food, fresh water, and warm, snugly blankets during chilly weather. 🌟 Educate and Inspire: Share the importance of responsible cat ownership and the impact of spaying and neutering. Educate your neighbors about the wonderful work being done to support community cats. With just a little bit of love & a few minutes of your time, you can help create a better life for cats in your community. Have more ideas? Let me hear 'em! #Cats #Volunteer #GivingBack

"🏠🌍 Tackling the housing crisis requires a multifaceted approach. While raising local housing allowance can provide immediate relief, it's crucial to think long-term. Solutions like living wages, improved buy to rent schemes, accessible mortgages for long-term renters, and secure renting schemes are vital for sustainable change. Everyone deserves decent homes, and it's time to build a brighter future for all. 🏡💚 #HousingCrisis #SustainableSolutions"
