Economic Self-sufficiency for 280 Senegalese Women

Friends,

Your continued support for CREATE! is generating sustainable livelihoods for rural women through poultry production in Senegal.  Since our last report in October, our poultry cooperatives in the villages of Fass Kane, Fass Koffe, and Ouarkhokh have continued to expand and thrive due to your generous donations.

Thanks to your contributions, the new poultry cooperative in Ouarkhokh has recently completed its second round of poultry production.  In August, CREATE! field technicians helped community members in Ouarkhokh build their own poultry shed.  In the past months, several women have been cooperatively managing poultry production using their new poultry shed.  The women are now selling their chickens in local markets and reinvesting their earnings into future poultry flocks.

Today, you can help other communities like Ouarkhokh start their own poultry cooperatives.  This is the last day in 2014 to contribute to this project through GlobalGiving! Please help communities like Diender and Thieneba gain new skills and livelihoods through poultry production.  With your generous donation, we can ensure that more women receive economic benefits through poultry production.

CREATE!’s beneficiaries truly appreciate your donation to help them on their way to economic self-sufficiency! So what’s next?  We would love to have you get more involved with CREATE! Send an email to kaitlyn@createaction.org and I will let you know all the different ways that you can help out! Be sure to stay updated with what’s going on with CREATE! by becoming our friend on Facebook, following us on Twitter, and checking out our blog!

Best wishes,
