Emergency Truck Replacement
Since 2021, the village and Team KKO, our cacao farm economic partner, have shared a single pickup truck. Plans for 2025 include purchase of a second truck to transport people and goods to and from the rest of Cameroon.
In early 2023, the wear and tear on Afiri’s lone truck became too much to repair; the only solution was an emergency purchase of a used vehicle. The Foundation contributed $6,000 US as our share of the $15,000 US purchase price. Village leaders bought a fine new vehicle – one that includes a capped cargo bed for added security and all-weather travel.
While not an emergency, Afiri still needs a second vehicle as we keep growing!
Farewell, trusty pickup…
Perfect replacement, with cap!
