Construction Projects
We have a lot of construction activity going on at the moment. We are still short on some funding for the beef stable, but we have also begun some major construction on a water tower, a dormitory building and a training/classroom as part of the grant we have received from Samaritan's Purse. Your help in this area will be greatly appreciated.
