New birth gives hope and new beginnings. Although 2020 brought a lot of pain and struggle, AFVF pushed through roadblocks and saw success with their goat husbandry project. They started with 99 goats (90 females and 9 enhanced males). Within the space of 2 years, their females gave birth to 200 kids in 159 pregnancies.
The organization was able to distribute 162 goats to 147 members. 27 of those members came back for a second round of distributions. It is amazing to be able to share that 42 of the distributed goats have given birth to 63 kids. Those newcomers have brought the organization's tribe to a whopping 362 kids!
These members have been through much struggles including the males getting up there in age and losing their stamina. The pandemic also did not help with the country being on lockdown. None of this held them back though; all of those struggles have been a learning experience for our partners in rural Haiti. The experiences and newcomers give the members the ability to bring in income and contirbute to their economy.
