When you are trying to start an organization and aid the forgotten and neglected and do some thing for the future of mankind there are frustrations, disappointments, errors, and lots of learning. All the negatives are forgotten when you receive messages like this (received indirectly showing more sincerity) from Mankuma Junior High School. The messages are slightly misworded,it is not about one man, it is about all that have contributed to this project. Without you, this message would never have been produced. Thanks to all and may we have more success in 2025. Savannah Rising🌳🌳🌳📚📚📚🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭

Last week Mankuma school had a ceremony with traditional dances and honoring their students and presenting new initiatives of the school. Present were local chiefs (pictured), parents and other dignitaries. Mankuma is looking to have a small computer center for the students, knowing that even in an area where electricity and water is scarce in some villages, the students will need these skills to move forward with good employment prospects. Savannah Rising led the way with their fundraising drive and have promised 33% of their proposed budget in return of planting native trees in 2025. We are proud to lead the way on this initiative. Thanks to all our donors that have led the way for us, you are part of Savannah Rising and we thank you all. Savannah Rising 🌳🌳🌳📚📚📚💻💻💻🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭

Baobab superstitions continue. If you harvest leaves from this tree with the dried okra without seeds hanging, you will lose all newborn babies until you ask for forgiveness. We need more Baobab’s. Savannah Rising.🌳🌳🌳📚📚📚
