Posts about funds
Hello Everyone,
Sulaiman (the village representative) has expressed a concern about the difficulty of keeping in touch with us at Nabuur. The reason is because he has difficulties getting to a computer on a daily basis.
Any ideas on how other villages have dealt with this issue?
Hi John,
It would be good if you could indicate the approximate amount of money required to buy the van. This information will determine the scale on which income needs to be generated, so that the required funds can be made available within a pre-determined time duration. Ideas can then be provided by the neighbours on plans which can achieve your targets for funds within a certain time.

Jim,
Thanks for joining Kisozi! And how fantastic you want to help me with this! Until now I have done this on my own (and a friend is helping me this month by the way, he will donate the money to me and I will add it to the total amount). You can't imagine how happy I am that you want to help with this. In this way, we can double the amount quite quickly. Thanks so much for helping out Jim!

Hello Rev,
Estimation cost schedule was emailed to me. Just got it. I am attaching it for you and also showing below my reply. Because I feel that communications need to be included in here so that other neighbours can have a look and also to keep a record of these developments. Very proud of your efforts. Below are the issue discussed and my reply. Once again Thanks, do not stop, keep up the good work:

Hello Ildikó and Stephen,
It is good to know that you have the basics already worked out and are just waiting for the funds to roll in. In my previous post I had felt it necessary to take you straight to the issue of funds, since that is obviously what the task is all about, and engaging neighbours in discussions or seeking opinions on non-fund issues is simply going to delay matters and will not translate into funds for your village.
