We feel heartbroken while distributing maize and beans as part of a first aid campaign to the patiently waiting Maasai women. We desperately need your donation to help them through this difficult time!

It's supposed to be the rainy season, but it's terribly dry. Last year's rainy season was already weak, resulting in meager harvests. People have run out of supplies. But without rain, they can't cultivate the land. The animals aren't giving milk; goats and cows are starving. Some people are already so weak they're fainting. We give the children at our Eramatare School food every day. And that's all we can provide.

BUT EVEN LESS CAN WE ALLOW CHILDREN TO LOSE THEIR PARENTS AND SIBLINGS.

Therefore, we ask you to help us in this emergency and to donate. So that we can buy and distribute corn and beans to alleviate the worst suffering. So that people can maintain their hope and strength!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR DONATION!

THANKS FOR SPREADING THE WORD!

What comes after the drought?

We have long seen how dangerous the dependence on rain and soil is. That's why we are building and running the Eramatare School. So that at least one child per family is able to earn an income outside of agriculture. However, it will be years before this becomes a reality.

We are specifically linking tourism with ERAMATARE. This is already possible for us and provides the women with an income opportunity through bead jewelry workshops. We naturally want to expand this offering.

I've been looking for someone with experience in agriculture in this climate for a long time. Growing maize is extremely risky. We need someone who can farm differently with the Maasai on our school fields. Someone who is knowledgeable about alternative crops, living soil, and water management, and who can teach this knowledge practically. So that the Maasai can see and recognize the difference. If you feel called to do this, or know someone who might, please get in touch!

The Maasai were nomads for centuries – just as some people here hoard money, some there hoard cows. That has to stop. Kaira knows that, and I know it too. But you can't change a culture overnight.

There's a lot to do. We're doing what we can. Step by step. We'd love for you to join us!

Feel welcome and be blessed!

Kaira & Sigrid
