CARTOONIST:
We need help from an experienced Cartoonist to help Ripples represent our Farming Manual pictorially so illiterate women amongst the women stakeholder farmers can understand the instructions during training. Farming does not only provide our women a source of income, it’s their only guarantee of food security. Our first goal is to provide women and children food security.
We have some tools to help facilitate our training programs. Representing instructions in pictures will transform our ability to effectively communicate with illiterate women and offer direct access to the women to the instructions, and improve their knowledge of new farming and agroforestry practices in line with our commitment to the climate.
We're asking for your support because you're interested in volunteering to empower African women who work their way to break the circle of poverty in African villages. We know that you want to volunteer in an organization like Ripples and you're looking to help African women and youth build and for some, rebuild their lives, and the basic things we all want for our children.
This role is perfect for volunteers who want to serve the community while they have fun understanding the real women and youth we work with and you who want to make a difference and help women escape the cycle of poverty for themselves and generals to come by giving your time to empower women." You want to join us to make change happen. There's so much we can achieve if you help. Will you join us to make change happen? Thank you.
