MICRO CREDITS TO FARMERS AND AGRICULTURAL SHOWS. 

------------------------------------------

 

This Project will be executed in collaboration with MECUDA CAMEROON.  Poultry and Piggery farms could be encouraged through Young Farmers Clubs by providing the seed capital. Our people are very familiar with the concept of Micro Credits. So we will be building on solid foundation.  Agricultural Shows as a method of encouraging farming, productivity and yield. Our people will have the opportunity to showcase their healthy crops and the abundant harvests will be transported to the urban cities to sale. Thus improving the socio economic standards of our people.  THE YOUTH DEPARTMENT will like to buy some trophies, medal and ribbons to encourage Youth participation in activities.  They have bought Tee shirts for those willing to participate in the Youth Traditional Dance.  So far these are the accomplished projects and those proposed. Please help us raise enough funds to complete these projects and do more.  We welcome ideas suggestions proposals and any useful information that is project related.  May GOD bless MECUDA USA.
