Dear All,

We
were approached and asked if we would consider purchasing animals for
those overseas whose needs might be different to our own. The reason being as an
alternative way of proffering a Christmas/Birthday present. We had
purchased animals before but not as a proactive venture.
We
compared notes with Aminatta,
Sierra Leone and
Piya,
Nepal
and Seguya Uganda-
and because of their positive approach we will attempt to take this project a
few steps further. Surprisingly the cost of the animals in the two countries
although continents apart was the same. Piya intends to use the animals to
develop animal husbandry as well as providing fresh milk and eggs for the Metta
Centre.
To
the left are the prices and below the
animals bought to date. As always, we have no administrative costs of any kind.
The photographs are of the actual animals purchased.
If you feel you would like to support
this project please contact me don@unesco.co.uk
