My Nonprofit Reviews

McAdamson Nkhoma/Malawi:

The Outreach International from 2012 till now it is able to source ore funds for funding poor people in the communities of Malawi particularly in the 12 partner communities that Malawi staff are working.
The time when we invited government staff from the department of agriculture to give awareness of how to take care, replace/plant trees and about the causes of deforestation through unnecessary fires (bush burning and cutting trees without its purpose into the partner communities that we work, at first the community members were not understanding about this ideology from ODP and government, But when we explained/facilitate about the effects of cutting trees without real purpose and burning the bushes, that these two things if not taken care it brings land degradation and the soil will not produce bumper yield to the crops that the farmer may grow.

The community people from the communities we work are now able to protect their lands that they inherited from there parents and the laws/polices are made within the villages that protects the burning of the bushes and cutting trees without a purpose. In additional to this the members have been able to submit proposals to different NGOs and GOs demanding tree seeds as well as polythene tubes for good germination of seeds, the most encouraging this is that OI when observed these people replacing trees in their own villages through facilitation from its workers, it provides funds that are meant to food for work while these members of groups are planting trees during the lean months from December to April this has happen for three times in different villages that ODP works. Outreach International is also providing more support to its field staff/HDFs financially in order to implement the PHDP work efficiently the community members has been able to plant acacia and eucalyptus trees and other trees that replaces the fertility of the soil . As a result in five years coming the 12 villages will have more to benefit from these trees when it comes at the time of selling because one acacia or eucalyptus pole of 5 inches thick and 7 to 15 feet long is sold at $3.70 USD as of now. each partner village has more than 1,000 growing trees.

Thats why Outreach International is rated meets the expectations of the poor people.
