Your treatise is quite brilliantly presented, and something I will aspire to as I work with various villages in Uganda. Thank you.

Hi Virginia Ellsworth,
Thank you very much. Our main focus is on viable information that help bring rapid positive results at the grassroots level. What we lack is support and interest from the public and those who clain "We are helping grassroots organizations" .It is sad that alot of organizations and their members do no want to work hard despite massive support from donors!.We are surprised that from 200 letters of appeal to Kenyan Companies on which we appended the information on pdf {attached above} Seven months later no one has done a reply or even drafting a letter of appreciation.Something is wrong somwhere in this world!!!!!!

I am so terribly sorry for you - and for the state of the world, that 200 companies can turn a blind eye in helping you, working in the grass roots, to help others. It is like they do not have a heart. All I can do is pray for you and try to encourage you to keep up your efforts. Perhaps a letter back to all 200 simply stating: "We sent this letter out to 200 companies, and not one of you answered. This is truly a sorry state of affairs. Even $100 from each of you would have answered our prayers, and put us on the road to self-sufficiency." Maybe it is time to embarrass people a little? I don't know; I am just truly angry of those who Have not sharing with those who are Starving.....

Your three emails are proof of why I do not become involved in fund raising. You can spend unlimited hours working and not help one person. I had rather try to help people help themselves.
Most villagers have land or can find land to use/rent. Grow food as most are hungry. A machete is all the tools needed, some seed and a few dollars for a bucket dripline. The FAO says that a bucket drip kit can return US$20 per month to a farmer. It allows them to grow during the dry season when no one else is growing and prices are highest.
Here is what a South African farmer [not subsistence, for sure] emailed me:

Dear Ken,
Thank you for all the DVD’s. Thank you for all the info. I am applying it in my own vegetable patch. It is working. Got half a pocket of potatoes off a square metre. So would imagine about 10 pounds per square yard. This off previously dead low carbon soil. Sure next crop will be better. Got yams coming up on same spot already. Want to plant herbs and spices. I will send photos.
Your advise is so simple. People do not believe me when I tell them. I am so excited about growing things now. This coming from a commercial plum farmer. May you be blessed this holy season a thousand times more than you blessed me with you help.
