Following the successful implementation of the first #VeggieTunnel in Poortjie, south of Lenasia, SOuth Africa, Salaamedia’s humanitarian wing, Salaam Foundation has launched a large scale call for people to get involved in the project.
The idea is to establish as many of the tunnels in schools, both private and public, as well as developing communities.

The BENEFITS

2) Entrepreneurship as the vegetables can be sold.

4) Scheduling skills
5) Love of farming and the earth.
6) Team work and humanity.
7) Most importantly it is a Prophetic encouragement to engage in food growth and environmental consciousness.
The IMPACT in society
Our water crisis in South Africa is not yet over. The next step is increased food prices followed by possible food shortages.
We can help our children prepare now for challenges of the future. Positive contributions to the upliftment of South Africa is our obligation.
This project costs R20 000 and can provide each school or community institution with an income of between R2000 and R4000 per month. *It’s sustainable*
Contributions in part are also welcome and will be pooled together.
Also make an intention for sadaqah jaariya or on going thawaab for yourself and your loved ones.
