This was the first SCAW distribution in Navaisha, the leading grower of roses in the world. The distribution was held at the Sher Karaturi flower farm that employs 3500 and has five greenhouses, each stretching for a half a mile.
The children were dressed in their colourful pajamas waiting for our arrival. 350 of the children were orphans and 80% were effected by HIV/AIDS — they or a family member. The incidence of AIDS is high here as it is a migrant population, often away from their families that make up the bulk of the work force.
At the end of the distribution we had a tour of the farm that exports 1.4 million roses each day to the flower auctions in Amsterdam.
