A crash course in changing the world.
Vegetables - Family Gardens Project
I read and learn about food security, complete the first objective, but when I read the second objective in Act…. I freak out!!!!
I am not good with things related to agriculture. One time I bought a plant and for a reason I can understand, it was death a week later.
In that scenario, how can I teach some one else to grow things?
I decided not to worry about that and think how can I use my abilities to give people the
food security they need?. At less a part of that.
Well, I spook to the University National of Asuncion Extension Director in the
Agronomic Unit, he said the students can help to the community without any
cost, teaching the way to plant a vegetable garden.
Then, I spook to the president of my Rotary International Club and she gave me a
complete support to develop the project and use the human and material
resources of the club as I needed.
So, now I have the teachers, the seeds and a lot of helpers with no cost. The project
count with the solid support of 2 great and well know institutions and the
result of this could be great!!
This project will be start in my city, but with the help of others Rotary Clubs presidents,
in a few weeks of work (and some meetings); it cans evolutes to a national
project.
I will upload evidence to the progress of this project every week.
Wish me luck!!!

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out.

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More
public servants
The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
