Goat raising as alternative income source

Dear Friends,

Greetings and thank you very much for your continuing support to our project sending girls affected by Typhoon Haiyan to school. As we mentioned in previous reports, we send our selected beneficiaries to vocational and formal schools depending on their choice. Some selects vocational schools where courses are completed in 3-6 months and then they are able to find jobs after graduating. They choose vocational because it takes time, say 3-4 years to finish formal schooling. We mentioned also that we are encoutering some problems because of the continuing nature of this initiative and thus we took care to encourage our supporters to give this project priority. This reporting period, we are providing small livelihoods to the families of our beneficiaries by encouraging them to raise small animals such as pigs, chickens and goats. Goats is the excellent choice because they are easy to raise, fed only with grasses, prolific, the females produces offspring and they command high price in the market. The income from the goat project the family can use to pay for the daily expenses of the students comprising fare, snacks, school supplies and other small expenses. We are able to buy and disperse a total of 38 goats for our beneficiaries.

Again, thank you very much for your generous support.

Very sincerely yours,

Cora Sayre
