    This is purely a family farm which involves working in our family farm where we have poultry, we grow vegetables in our garden for family use and our garden also acts as a demonstration garden for learning. In our farm we have chickens, Ducks, Turkey, Goose, Rabbits, Ornamental birds like Guinea Fowl(white and dotted) and we are planning to introduce pig as well. The main tasks here is to make sure that both Rabbits and poultry are fed and their cages are kept clean, drinkers are cleaned on a daily basis, you will as well ensure that poultry are vaccinated as scheduled and clean drinking water is provided to them all the time. Workawayers will as well work in the family garden, helping in planting, weeding, and watering the garden.

    Since we are also working with HIV positive Women in a sewing cooperative, Volunteers will be as well requested to participate in the project and can work with women and assist in cutting fabrics, teach financial literacy and business management, book keeping, simple accounting, marketing & saving, basic computer skills(Excel, word) and online marketing, social media marketing. We are also hoping that volunteers can help in managing our social media accounts by creating contents to be posted on facebook/instagram at least twice a week; this can be through graphic designs etc with the main objective of keeping our social media active and lively.

    We would as well appreciate to host volunteers who has experience in online fundraising and has experience in writing successful grant proposals.
