Heifer Update

Another exciting week! First, a generous donation allowed the Methodist Men to purchase 3 pigs. A chance for more of God’s less fortunate to raise themselves out of hunger and poverty – Praise God!

Then, we received a donation toward sending a “girl to school”. We now have $100 of the $275 needed to make the school bell ring again.

Following is another success story from Cambodia showing us that pigs are a viable animal to help feed and school children around the world.
Pigs Provide Much-Needed Income Set Hach and Hear Hearm’s small rice and vegetable patch in Cambodia never produced enough. After they ate, there wasn’t any left to sell. When their small crops didn’t grow well, they were left with nothing and went hungry. They scraped together pennies and felt they would always be on the edge of failure.

Then Hach discovered Heifer’s pig management training, learning all she didn’t know about pigs. After the training, she received two piglets and today she has a 100% success rate. She has raised 63 piglets from two sows, and encouraged 23 neighbors to join the program too.
