Thanks to many small donations and donation runs such as those in Schorndorf, Schwäbisch Hall and the primary and secondary school in Waldram, the annual donkey distributions were able to take place as usual. A total of 54 donkeys, equipped with a protective blanket, carrying harness and water canisters, were distributed by Pastor Demeke to needy women and their families in Jima in October and near Hurata in November.
