The water quality of the Buông River for irrigation has been tested, surrounding fences fixed to prevent trespassers, the kitchen renovated, and the core team for land care and human care have engaged in their preliminary work. To pay for the maintenance cost, products from the neem tree and the fruit tree gardens including jackfruit, bananas, cashews etc. have been sold at our various events. Activities such as youth camps, festivities and so on have attracted attendance of various faiths to get to know the land and contribute their service.

Targets of 2024 follow:

* Land care

  • Park boundary road construction completed (Red line at least).
  • Planting of four garden areas completed.
  • LOGO installation completed.

Core Team Discussion and Field Survey

Food Distribution to People in Need

*Human care

  • Interactive links with regional schools established (kindergarten, primary school, junior high school, high school).
  • Youth community volunteers established (community care, learning guidance).
  • Summer Environmental Education Youth Camp held.

Developing an ideal Master Unit is a new experience for everyone, yet we know Belief + Faith + Action are the prerequisites to fulfill this spiritual path. Even a small step that is helpful to the environment, nature and the society will sow the seeds of love and hope to the next generation.
