Biking makes life so much easier!

Dear Heather,

Augustine Jabah is from Bodaa, Ghana, on the western boarder next to Cote D’Ivoire. Most people in this town of about 1000 people are farmers, and the soil is fairly good there. People in Bodaa walk most places they go, and waste valuable time getting places they need to go. Thanks to your donation, Augustine received a bicycle and was taught how to take care of it.

Augustine is a 35 year old farmer.  His farm, where he grows cashews, is 3 km away from his house, and before he got his bike he walked there every day, and had to carry his tools.  He saves precious time by riding his bicycle instead of walking, allowing him to spend more time with his family and attend community events. Owning a bike saves energy for Augustine and his family, and makes
life a lot more productive!

Augustine is very thankful for your donation, Heather!  Thanks for your support of the
Village Bicycle Project!
