Helping people out of poverty into a sustainable future
Chickens are brilliant - one hen can lay up to 200 eggs a year, providing essential protein for all the family, and a source of income. As Viorel says: "It's all about the chickens - they provide enough eggs for the whole community, it's amazing!"
One box of seeds means vegetables for a whole family. In time, a small vegetable patch becomes a small business and provides enough vegetables to sell. A truly wonderful gift.
Tending crops is tremendously difficult when you have no tools. Make hands happy with a set of hand tools that enable a family to work their land and provide for themselves.
This isn't just any pig - it is a pig that provides the opportunity to develop skills in animal farming, gain an income and have access to essential food.
Having a trade means families can find work, use their skills to improve their homes and even set up a business! We provide tools and training in trades like carpentry to help families become self-sufficient.
A cow will give a family milk, butter and cheese to help improve their diet, reduce their food bills and give them something to sell or exchange.
