The December 2026 pilot

Three days. Fifty-five people. One public report.

3: days in Logre over the Christmas break
55: places: 25 widows and 30 children
1: public report within 30 days

Places are capped at 25 and 30. Surplus giving goes first to widow places, then contingency, then the 2027 cohort, disclosed when you give. An unfunded place never means a person left out: Ramah will run the pilot regardless.

Logre · Nabdam District

Why Logre first.

The poorest of Nabdam's largest communities. Widows first, because homes headed by women are poorer still.
