Make Christmas special for the women of "Mutanu the pink garden"

In just over a month it will be Christmas, an anniversary that this year we will certainly live in a different way, but which will not lose its value for this.

Indeed, even this Christmas can be special.

How? Choose to make a unique gift: give the women of Mutanu the pink garden the concrete possibility of continuing to take care of their beautiful greenhouse.

In just over two years, this arid and uncultivated land in Kenya has become a luxuriant vegetable garden. Every day the women, led by the unsurpassed Sister Federica, take care of irrigation, sowing, harvesting and go to sell the products at the market, earning a small income.

Last year the project was enriched by a small goat farm that gives a lot of milk, which is partly sold.

The women of this socio-educational project are very poor and this concrete job opportunity is giving each of them dignity and independence. Without Mutanu these women would have no future. The next step we would like to take together is training. We would like to start two courses: one that allows women to learn more about cultivation techniques and one dedicated to microcredit.

But we can only do it if you are close to us.

Donate now

  • 10 € for many new seeds
  • 30 € for the cans needed to supply the garden with water
  • 50 € to examine the soil and find out which crops are the best
  • 100 € for the training course dedicated to micro-credit


Do you know what Mutanu means? It means joy. It is the joy that is seen in their smiles of all these women and it is the joy that you can give to each of them. Thank you so much!
