Helping
low-income, rural Nicaraguans affected by Hurricane Mitch The
Fundación Orlando Robleto Gallo (FORG) is a non-profit, non-governmental
organization. FORG’s goal is the development and consolidation of
local-level, sustainable initiatives in municipalities populated by poor
farmers. FORG
planned a four-year project to improve access to credit, create and
strengthen local development organizations, carry out conservation
activities, and provide training and technical assistance in management,
agriculture, credit, and environmental conservation to victims of
Hurricane Mitch. The intended beneficiaries are 800 rural families,
totaling 5,000 individuals, in ten rural communities in the municipality
of Villa El Carmen, Department of Managua. FORG
would help low-income, rural Nicaraguans affected by Hurricane Mitch
recover productive capacity, and prevent future environmental disasters.
