Yes, a chicken really can change a life.

When you give a chicken as a gift to a child in poverty, you help to provide a reliable source of nutrition and a sustainable way to generate an income.

That's what happened for 6-year-old Valentina and her family in Mexico.

When she was gifted 20 hens, she started a business. Within a year she had a thriving egg-laying operation. Two years later, with the help of local livestock experts, the family now has 700 hens that produce around 300 eggs a day.

Give a life-changing gift!

Here's how poverty affects children.

Physically

Hunger and poor living conditions can lead to stunting, mental lag and susceptibility to disease.

Emotionally

Poverty makes children feel alone, helpless, broken and hopeless.

Socially

Children living in poverty often feel like they are less than their peers and lack confidence.

Spiritually

Too many children in poverty never learn the truth of God’s love for them.

BUY A CHICKEN FOR KIDS LIKE JUNA

Juna’s family had always faced challenging economic circumstances. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in Colombia, things became much worse, and her caregivers were unable to work or sustain income to support the family. However, thanks to gifts like yours, Juna’s family received 30 chickens, along with training, to feed themselves and to generate income. Now they are feeding themselves and the community!

“It is good to teach families to generate income because this knowledge endures and allows them to improve their quality of life,” center staff tell us.
