We are overjoyed to share a wonderful update from Kenya, made possible entirely by the incredible generosity of our Perth supporters. The 3rd annual Perth Golf Day was a tremendous success, and the funds raised have already been put to work, creating a project that promises a sustainable future for our children at Doyle Farm. Your kindness is not just a donation; it’s the foundation upon which we build brighter, more secure lives.
We are so excited to announce that the fish project you funded is now complete! The setup is finished, and the pond is teeming with life. Our new fingerlings have been introduced to their home and are already growing strong. While they are still tiny, in about a month, we should start to see them swimming around, a visible sign of the incredible progress you have made possible.
This project is a huge step towards self-sustainability for Rafiki Mwema, and we are anticipating superb yields that will provide a vital source of nutrition for our children and staff.
From an Idea to a Thriving Reality
Every swing of the club and every bid at the auction during the Perth Golf Day contributed directly to this project. The goal was to create a sustainable food source that would nourish our children and teach them valuable life skills. Seeing the completed pond and knowing it is already home to thousands of tiny fish is a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we come together.
This isn’t just about building a fish farm; it’s about providing stability. It’s about ensuring our children have access to nutritious food, which is essential for their physical and emotional healing. The sustainability of this project means we can rely less on outside resources and more on our own land, empowering us to care for our children for years to come. We can’t wait to share photos and videos as the fish grow and the project flourishes.
Building on a Legacy of Support
The success of the fish farm builds on the legacy of previous projects funded by our amazing Perth community. Your support has already had a profound impact on Doyle Farm.
Last year, you helped us complete our incredible barn, a space that has become central to our farming operations and a new chapter of growth at the farm. You can read more about how this structure has transformed our daily life and capabilities here: Barn Complete and Ready for a New Chapter at Doyle Farm.
Your contributions have consistently helped us build a safer and stronger future for our children, piece by piece. The foundation you helped lay is one of security and hope, which you can see in more detail here: Your Support is Building a Safer and Stronger Future Thanks to Perth Golf Day.
A Heartfelt Thank You
To everyone who attended, sponsored, volunteered, or donated to the 3rd Perth Golf Day, thank you. Your belief in our mission is what turns these ambitious projects into reality. You are giving our children more than just food or shelter; you are giving them the chance to heal in a safe, loving, and stable environment.
As we watch our little fingerlings grow, we are filled with hope and gratitude. This fish farm represents a brighter, more sustainable future, and it was all made possible by you. Thank you for being our loyal friends.
