She developed a passion of helping the community and started the process of becoming a \u2018Community Volunteer (CV)\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She says: <em>\u201cI desire to see my neighbors poverty stricken lives changed. After attending a Basic Life Skills course I planted a garden using the deep trench method. From this I was able to feed my family and earn an income through sales of the surplus produce. I also started another business where I sold health products. It failed because people took products from me on credit.<br>I then started an agricultural business and requested a place in the community to plant amadumbe because my homestead was not suitable. This business has been successful and I now sell amadumbe at a market in 20 litre buckets for R180 a bucket. People like to buy them in bulk, and I can sell 20 buckets on one day. I now have plans to expand my garden to allow for increased production. I have also started selling eggs.<br>Through this ACAT programme I feel spiritually renewed and I understand the word of God better. My wish is that everyone could have their eyes opened and their lives transformed!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2680,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false},"categories":[8],"class_list":["post-2696","successes","type-successes","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-farming"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
