Real impact: Rakhi in Bangladesh
Rakhi, 10, lives with her family in an eco-village in southern Bangladesh, an area impacted by the climate crisis and badly damaged during storm Amphan.
Thankfully, Rakhi's mother Ratna worked with local experts from the CAFOD-funded Bangladesh Association for Sustainable Development to learn sustainable gardening techniques. The training allowed Ratna and her daughter to restart their own garden and grow fruit and flower trees.
They now grow organic papaya, mango, and coconut trees which they eat and sell at the local market, giving the family an extra source of income.
"I can plant trees on my own. My mother can also plant them on her own. You need to water trees and use organic fertiliser to make them grow. We make that fertiliser at home," Rakhi told us.
Rakhi is hopeful about the future and has planted over 50 trees and vegetables by now.
Give the gift of trees for life today and help families grow food, income, and hope.
