Dambah is happy to ride the 7km he used to walk to his farm!

Dambah is a farmer from the village Dupari, located in the Upper West Region of Ghana. Most people in Dupari are farmers who grow yams, corn, peanuts, millet and sorghum, and they take their produce to Bulenga for sale, 3 miles away from Dupari and to Chaggo, 5km in the other direction from Dupari. There is no public transportation between Bulenga or Chaggo and Dupari, so most people walk.

Thanks to your donation, Dambah received a bicycle and was taught how to take care of it.  His farm is almost 7 km outside of Dupari and without a bicycle he walked this distance every day. Getting his produce to market was a lot of work before he had a bicycle.

Owning a bike will make life for Dambah much easier, more productive and increase his income. Dambah is very thankful for your donation, Rick!  Thank you for your support of Village Bicycle Project!
