FOOD PACK DISTRIBUTION – 5th WAVE
On December 16-22, 2020, Preda Fair Trade team distributed food packs to 366 mango farmers coming from 16 Aeta communities of Zambales and Bataan.
The project is in partnership with Merry Year Foundation and AFN Korea. Each farmer received 1 food pack that contains 10 kilos of rice, 5 noodles, 5 sardines, ½ kilo of sugar, coffee and assorted candies & biscuits.
Receiving an assistance of whatever kind is a big help to Aeta farmers considering the pandemic crisis. Many of them do not have rice land and they only gather available saleable crops in the mountain and planting assorted crop like root crop, vegetables, bananas and other fruit bearing trees. Any harvest is sold in the market or to some commercial buyer reaching their place. Whatever income they gained is used to buy rice and other essential basic needs of the family. Therefore, the food pack distribution given to them is a big support to each family for them to survive.
