Notes
Abraham, Audrey and Victoria met forty one Bukoma B community members and they had two meetings, one meeting at the bore hole and another at the church down the road to Kamuli.They went around checking stoves and the bore hole where they found the bore hole leaking from the head.They found out however that the problem is one of the bolts was taken and it needs to get another so that they can fix it. They shared with the chairman about the problem and he said they are going to get the bolt tomorrow and fix it. The stoves are being used and the members are so happy to have them. They proceeded to the meeting place at the church and the chairman told the meeting that they lost a father of the LC5 Luuka district and many members had gone to encourage the family. Abraham introduced the Mvule program to the members who had questions about the rumors that is going around that all Mvule trees belong to the government. He asked them who is spreading the rumors and they all were saying they heard people talking, he promised to take them the Luuka district forest officer to explain the governments stand on the issue. Abraham told them to bring more concerns about planting trees in the next meeting because they had a little time to answer all questions.
