We partnered with the Red Cross to supply some greenhouses to an agricultural school to help the students learn good farming practices in Bosnia. During the school year the students plant and care for the growing plants, but the school year ends before the crops are harvested. Nerman, who is the Red Cross translator for our Humanitarian Couple, took it upon himself to go and hand water the plants every day all summer long.

The produce from the greenhouse he takes to the local Tuzla Soup Kitchen, elderly home, and orphanage. He did this just out of the goodness of his heart with no pay from us or the Red Cross or the school. (Project WE13BIH003)

This is one of my favorite projects as well. It is going to be a hard transition into this new role. Thinking of you as you end your service. Best of luck.
