Success!

My visit to the US was very successful. I enjoyed the opportunities that I had to share about what's happening with the Siem Reap Pig Project. I only wish there was more time and that I could be there when it wasn't a holiday so that more people could hear about the great things happening in Cambodia.

Please stay tuned for updates on Stage 2 of our second year with the Pig Project. We're evaluating how to best allocate the resources that so many people generously gave in order to move the Pig Project into a more successful and far-reaching project.

Some things we're considering:

• buying single piglets for numerous village families and then providing training for inexensive and more effective food so they can raise the pigs for meat to feed their families rather than for sale.
• assisting the uncle who was one of the original participants with the first two pig groups with helping him to raise his two sows.
• building a second pig shelter for an additional pig project.

I look forward to another successful year!
