Hands on skills training- Fresh Yogurt production in Canteen etal
Give-Back Component of MasterCard Foundation
(Target: Yogurt production,soap making,beads making,tye and dye,etcetera).
There couldn't have been a better way to begin the year 2022. Happy to say that through our humble brother,Salifu Abdul Hamid (MasterCard Foundation Scholar), we secured an intensive Yogurt production skills training program for the smart and dedicated young girls and women of the Canteen Electoral Area.
Through a collaborative effort,over 60 young girls and women drawn from various women groups in Canteen benefited from the free skills training/Self Help Project. Participants were drawn from Savannah Ladies, Surviving Ladies,Kanyiti Wale Group, Asezele Women group of no.5 and Number 6 Frafra Women Group.
After two days of intensive training,our galant women were able to produce fresh Yogurt of different flavors ( Fan Yogurt,Fanice,Fanchoko,apple yogurt, mango yogurt,nut yogurt,banana yogurt,just mention them).
Infact,after learning with our young girls,I am also able to confidently produce yogurt of any Flavor.š
All you need is your milk source,raw liquid or pasteurized form,starter culture and addictions (flavors or sweeteners). You then get your equipment and run the process from Standardization, homogenization,heat treatment, cooling,innoculation,fermentation, mixing & smoothening, mixing & homogenization,cold storage and drinking yogurt. Sounds simple, right?
If His grace continue to remain sufficient in our lives,our next phase will focus on soap making among others.
I committed to buy the first bottle from any of the women or groups that will start production of the yogurt for commercial purposes at a cost of Ghc50.00 plus an undisclosed surprise package for further production.
Mind you,under the project,there is a window to solicit for support for those that would implement the outcome of the training seriously in order to put body and soul together!!!
Whilst commending our women for responding massively to our invitation, even at a very short notice,I wish to say that given the necessary support, Canteen can produce fresh and delicious yogurt to feed the entire Savannah Region. All we crave for now is the packaging machine, equipment and some little push and we'll become the world bank of fresh Yogurt production. Most of the raw materials can be produced locally.
If you believe in this vision,kindly come to the aid of our trainees in whatever way you can and you'll never regret investing in this worthy course. Kindly get in touch and let's together empower our communities and young women! Employable skills with the necessary support leads to empowerment that reduce the unemployment gap!
I want to thank my big brother, Abdul Hamid for remembering home and making time for us to impart this life changing skills on our community. We use God to bless you.
I am looking forward to working more with you and other like minded individuals for the larger benefit of the people of the Canteen Electoral Area.
The big vision is on!
May God bless Canteen Electoral Area and make her people bold and strong.
A productive 2022 to you and your family.
Shalom!
