One of the great ways that Dream of a Better World has communicated it's projects to potential donors is through proposals and letter writing. This month, we received the most amazing response to Dream of a Better World's "Matching Gift Campaign Proposal" spearheaded by Dream Team Members Hannah and Jack. The anonymous US based non-profit organization gave $20,000 to kickoff the "Dream of a Better World School" and "Sustainable Farmland" Project! Wow!

Dorm & Unfinished Clinic (Behind) |
Back in 2010, we purchased the land that
Our Own Home (OOH) orphanage is now farming and living on. Over the years, we funded the dormitory and main house, part of the medical clinic and, recently, the new kitchen being built right now.

2 1/2 Acres Cultivated |
What started off as 4 acres of farmland has become 1 1/2 acres of farmland and 2 1/2 acres of a beautiful campus for 60 plus HIV+ orphans who are healthy, going to school and have big plans for their future! They currently farm about 1/3 of their staple maize based food, called posho, certain vegetables and raise chickens, cows and pigs.
