🌱🎙️ As we continue celebrating our 40th Anniversary, this month we are highlighting the sister relationship between WERU and Radio Sumpul.

Founded in 2003, this partnership is rooted in a shared belief in the power of community radio to educate, inform, and connect people. For more than two decades, WERU and Radio Sumpul have strengthened people-to-people solidarity through communication, storytelling, and community engagement.

Today, we celebrate their commitment to amplifying local voices and building stronger, more informed communities across borders.

🌱 The agriculture project in the Las Anonas community is already bearing fruit.

25 families received corn, bean, and pipián seeds, and the community has already completed its first successful harvest 🌽✨ This effort helps strengthen food sovereignty in the community and ensures crops before the rainy season.

This project was made possible thanks to last year’s fundraising campaign. 💛

This year, we will continue supporting the work of CRIPDES and Sister Cities, and we invite you to be part of this effort by making a donation.

🌱 El proyecto de agricultura de la comunidad Las Anonas ya está dando sus frutos.

25 familias fueron beneficiadas con semillas de maíz, frijol y pipián, y la comunidad ya realizó su primera cosecha exitosamente 🌽✨ Este esfuerzo ayuda a fortalecer la soberanía alimentaria de la comunidad y asegura cosechas antes de la temporada de invierno.

Este proyecto fue posible gracias a nuestra recaudación de fondos del año pasado. 💛
