Personalities leave for Ethopia to build a farm for those in need

The six personalities Jade Cini, Emmanuel Aquilina, Toby Farrugia, Gillian Attard, Nicholas Briffa and Doriana Portelli together with Robert Farrugia Missio, coordinator and a camera crew will join Mark Caruana and Chrysander Agius in Adrigat, Ethiopia.

In this forgotten, war beaten part of Ethiopia the team of Maltese personalities will roll up their sleeves, dig, feed and do any jobs the locals do. Before they leave the team would have helped physically and financially in creating a sustainable farm. This will include buying animals, digging a borehole and giving hope and a future to the surrounding, presently desperate communities.

The struggles these countries face are inconceivable! Water, food, health, work and education are some of the daily struggles these people face. The farm is projected to be self-sustainable in a couple of years’ time and it will help the local community in general and also people who suffer from Aids. Moreover, with the help of this project a large number of children and teens will not end up in human trafficking or prostitution.

Il-Progett is also designed to inspire thousands of Facebook users to relate, understand and appreciate the basic luxuries we enjoy every day! Il-Progett will eventually be aired on TV and viewers will be able to watch the personality’s ups and downs while at the same time collect funds for this commu- nity. The personalities, together with the production team, already started with activities and will continue to do so when they return in order to collect the sum of €25,000 that is needed to finance this project.

We encourage everyone to join the Facebook page for daily updates from Ethiopia and also for information of how you can help the team to reach their final goal.
