Edison Chikukwa "Farming Project"

Donation protected
Hi everyone, who would have thought around the globe we would all be having the shared experience of living in a lockdown, with a pandemic on the loose! As most of you have met my father, Edison Chikukwa on your safaris in Zimbabwe. The tourism industry in Zim, has been completely shut down with no reopening in sight. This current situation has put my father and many others in an impossible predicament as their previous livelihood has been stopped with no assistance from the government or their employers.

This greatly saddens my father as he is passionate about his work and loves meeting people and making friends. He has been stuck at home and knowing him he is getting stir-crazy not being able to be in the bush doing what he loves best. Currently, he is putting his time and energy into a farming project growing potatoes and onions roughly an hour from our family home. He has been camping onsite and giving the land as much TLC as he can. He was able to secure this plot from a family relative to get him started as a way to fill in his time and create a sustainable source of income for my family and especially since we don’t know how long this pandemic will last.

My wife and I send what we can to help with living expenses and farm expenses such as fertilizers,  machinery for tiling the soil, and getting everything ready for planting in the next month. We are creating this fundraising page with the intention of helping my father and family to get this project moving. We understand that this is a difficult time for everybody and any small amount would go a long way for my family in Zimbabwe and be so greatly appreciated!

I hope that your families are safe and healthy in these unprecedented times!

Sincerely,
Bryton Chikukwa
