Hello guys, I'm @raymondbruce bringing you update from the girlsfoundation pre-visit to a farm done by the manager[@abiye] of steem church farm [@farms]

The farm is located at 4th Street, 2nd federal road off usleu benin city, Nigeria

The pre-visit to the farm land was done in respect to the girlsfoundation foundation on going project "empowering women in agriculture".

About the visit

Although the farmland is close to @farms place of residence.

  • Got to the farm by approximately 4:30pm
  • Explained what we had in mind to the owner of the farm
  • Walked with the owner of the farm to see what she cultivates

Difficulty

The owner of the farm wasn't learned , so it was very difficult communicating with her although she could speak the Nigeria pidgin a bit but it was still difficult.
With her little capability of speaking the Nigeria pidgin we where able to do the video above.

crops cultivated on the farm are

  • Cocoyam
  • plantain
  • and other vegetables

The aim of this project is to encourage and motivate women in agriculture and also provide them with essential farming tools.
Talking about farming tools, I'm not talking about bulldozers, tractors etc because we will be visiting local farmlands and as such we'll be providing them with local farm tools to help with their farming activities.

The goal of this project is to help little farmlands grow to something big in the nearest future. This project will help increase the productivity of the farm lands we will be visiting and it will also serve as an avenue to promote the steem blockchain.


And so this is just about it for today's update for @girlsfoundation. We are most grateful to all steemians for the love shown and full support till this very far.
With the direction of @surfyogi @bleepcoin @mangos @drakos @ackza @demotruk @teamsteem @fundition @wafrica @adollarady and all those who care to make human needs a priority, @faetee, @raymondbruce and @mcsamm are committed to making lots of changes in the life of girls and women here in Africa. We believe this has a positive impact on the growth of this blockchain family. Thanks to everyone for showing us love always and we hope to see you stay glued to the girl's foundation for more life-changing activities.


About girls foundation

The girls foundation is a project set up to enlighten young ladies of their norms and value, advocate for the girl-child, encourage and support them with the little we can.We believe the girl-child can bring about change in our society. Women are essential to the nation because they take care of its children, the children are the future leaders of the nation, if you are familiar with the bible you must have heard of this verse “train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he won‟t depart from it”.Girls foundation was founded by a group of selfless ladies, it is a non�governmental organization an d believes in decentralization.

VISION:-

  • To enlighten youths of their purpose in life. We believe once you know the truth and purpose of your existence you are free, the journey to success and failure now lies in your hands.
  • Rape free society- Rape is a sexual assault carried out against a person forcefully. The rate at which girls are being raped these days is alarming, we are also humans and we deserve respect. Most rape victims suffer from trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder, serious injuries and in some cases pregnancy and sexually transmitted infection.
  • Fight against domestic violence- it is also known as intimate partner violence, domestic abuse or family violence ; it's a form of violence committed in a domestic or family setting, such as in marriage or cohabitation. It is called intimate partner violence when committed by spouse and called family violence when it involves the kids, parents or elders. Domestic violence has several effects on human that's is why girls foundation is picking it up. Effects of domestic violence
    includes :
    1.) Physical effect: This involves bruises round the victim, broken wrists, shortness of breath etc.
    2.) Mental effect: This involves PTSD (post-traumatic stress),
    pressing, drug abuse, suicidal thoughts etc.
    3.) Emotional effect: This involves feeling unworthy, hopeless and not motivated etc.
    4.)It affects the development of the kids and they suffer from
    depression, anxiety, fear etc
    Domestic violence always produces an international cycles of
    violence. Funny, only few people see themselves as being abused; considering it as family matter.
  • Girl education: Some people still believe that training a female child is a waste of time and money 'cause they feel she'd still end up in the kitchen, well sorry to disappoint you but ladies can do much more than just being house wives, lots of educated women are doing fine in our society today. Every child deserves equal right to education.We don't think anyone should be treated differently because of their gender, we are all one and it's high time we realized that.

CONCLUSION:-

The primary aim of the girls foundation is to enlighten youths and increase the awareness of the steem blockchain and steemit. Giving girls the ability to create wealth with their writing skills, without waiting for the government intervention.
