A small poultry project can become an important source of food, income, and resilience for a vulnerable family. Through Nurture 200 Children’s Lives, F SSIBU Mission Foundation is helping families understand how poultry farming can contribute to stronger household livelihoods while supporting the wellbeing of children.
Families are being introduced to basic poultry management, including appropriate housing, feeding, hygiene, disease prevention, breeding, flock management, and simple record keeping. Our approach emphasizes knowledge and responsible management so that families can gradually build sustainable poultry enterprises.
We also encourage girls to participate in poultry activities. Through practical involvement, girls can learn animal care, responsibility, budgeting, record keeping, and basic business principles. These skills can become valuable foundations for future income-generating activities.
Poultry can provide several benefits to a household. Eggs can contribute to family nutrition, while birds and poultry products can potentially be sold to generate income. Poultry manure can also be used to support household gardens, creating a productive link between livestock and crop farming.
Donor contributions can help us provide poultry starter support, training, housing materials, and follow-up guidance to vulnerable families.
For families connected to Nurture 200, strengthening livelihoods can help caregivers respond more effectively to children’s needs. Additional income may contribute toward food, education materials, clothing, healthcare, and other essentials.
Your support can help a family begin with a small opportunity and gradually build something more sustainable.
Together, we can turn poultry farming into a pathway toward resilience, dignity, and hope.
