About The Project

$830 needed to purchase hens and materials for hen house
$200 contributed by Gerald towards his project

With an initial investment Gerald bought more chickens and a sheep. He put some money in his local SACCO (Savings and Credit Cooperative Organization). He bought vegetables to grow in the family garden as he wants to contribute to a better diet for his family. 



Paying it Forward

Gerald’s goal is to contribute to his family’s income to keep them from financial hardship and poverty.

Backstory

Gerald  is a young man living with his extended family. His education stopped during his primary school years due to the lack of funds to pay for tuition. No one in his family has an advanced education. He notes the challenging aspect to living in this area is the lack of jobs. The family engages in various farming activities to earn an income. He is conscious of using good conservation practices and uses organic products. His goal is for his family to stay out of poverty and live a better life. He hopes to build a home for himself one day.
