Grant to Village Health Works

 

    

Village Health Works (VHW) operates a health clinic in the village of Kiguta, Burundi. Since its opening in December of 2007, the clinic has seen over 60,000 patients. The Nutrition and Food Security Project is a program of VHW to link the treatment of malnutrition with long-term food security. The $20,000 in grants from the AllPeopleBeHappy foundation in 2009-2010 was used to procure supplies and to pay 14 Agricultural Assistant Workers to teach villagers on how to grow more nutritious food, and to establish and maintain 60 home gardens.  In addition, an impressive amount of infrastructure has been built: a raised-bed demonstration garden, a nursery for food-bearing plants, a large agro forest, shelters for chickens, goats, and cows, and a large-scale composting system.  With another $10,000 grant in 2011, this program was further expanded to encompass neighboring villages and to promote cooperative farming.  (www.villagehealthworks.org
