Notes
Chris and bamulumbye first moved conducted home to home visits to mobilize the community for the general meeting, it is kind of tricky season since it’s planting time but thankfully 45 community members managed to come fo a meeting to agree on the decision to receive goats. During the meeting, each community member was given an opportunity to give their opinion regarding the decision to receive goats and it turned out that community members were unanimous in support of the Kibo decision to give them the goats, the secretary Mr Kawanguzi Mujib said rearing goats and growing onions will be the easiest way of elevated the community out of poverty and good enough the community has experience in keeping goats. Chris thanked the community for the cooperation they demonstrated during the consultations and meeting , Chris now will be updating the community register by incorporating the new community members into the register and constitution as well and introduce the sub lesson of requirements to receive goats on Friday.
