Goats

The gift of live goats gives a family milk they can drink and sell to provide for their other critical needs. By offering both nutrition and income to families in need, you foster hope and help them become self-sufficient.

Nutrition & Income

Fertilizer for Crops

Goat manure enriches soil for healthier crops, creating additional food and income sources for families.

Sustainability

Offers families training in livestock rearing and milk gathering to ensure this gift benefits them for years to come.
