Most groups are really nice to work with however, and I am accomplishing a lot in that area. I am also working with a youth group now, jointly trying to come up with some ideas to help them find jobs. I have been asked to join a group trying to decide how to deal with the street kids. Most of the merchants are unsympathetic to the problem. Unemployment is very high.
Most kids stay with their families where there is some chance of food.
This is their lifeline to survival. If the rains fail, as there is no other source of food. The beans, amize and cowpeas are about 12-15 inches high now, but rain is needed continually. However, when it reains, it really rains - monsoonal type rains. I put out my buckets and catch as much rainwater as possible.
