Christine Herzog is in close contact with the Lions Club Hochwald-Hermeskeil. He is always looking for good projects that you can support. Christine talked about the work of wir bewegen and so the idea quickly came up to ask Bhumesthan whether further help was needed.
In discussions with the villagers, two needs emerged.
On the one hand, the construction of a community center so that the village council no longer has to meet at the “lazy stone”, or the children would have a common place to study after school.
On the other hand, you would like to professionalize goat breeding.
On the one hand, the goats can cover the daily need for milk and provide rare meat meals. On the other hand, the families can set up a goat farm and sell the offspring to generate income. The Lions Club Hochwald-Hermeskeil is very enthusiastic about the idea of supporting the families in Bhumesthan in setting up a goat farm. There was a lot of thought and discussion. In the end, the desire was to buy a special breed, as they are particularly suitable for breeding and are in high demand. The residents of Bhumesthan have been searching since spring - but this is proving to be a little more difficult and more expensive than expected. The desired Buuren goats seem to be rare in Nepal. We'll have to see whether it will only be Buuren goats in the end. On the one hand, breeding would also be profitable for sale in this case - but the acquisition costs are again high.
Even though it is often quiet on our website; In real life we are always in contact with Nepal and look at how we can improve the simple lives of the people there in such a way that self-help continues to advance.
