Mr. Odula's program provides environmental training with specialties such as agroforestry, apiforestry and aquaculture. The Monato Good Samaritan Centre is an educational complex consisting of pre-primary education, a nursery school. These students attend the Good Samaritan School in Kenya, Africa. Their drawings show maps of Kenya, its flag, the plants, animals, people and implements of their life on the east bank of Lake Victoria. The Vietnamese Tree Pals in this photo are carrying firewood home so their mothers can cook with it.
Wood is the preferred fuel for cooking in much of the world.
Trees for the Future encourages the use of nearby fast growing woodlots instead of cutting firewood from distant forests. Firewood can be cut as needed from these household woodlots and the trees will grow up very quickly again and again. This practice can be of great benefit to the forests and the children. This is one of the projects Trees for the Future started in Central America in 1999. Honduras sustained massive damage from Hurricane Mitch.
