Goat project

Giving away a goat becomes a concrete aid for a poor family. Many families in Ethiopia live in extreme poverty and a goat can make a huge difference. The goat produces milk full of nutrients which strengthens the immune system. This is something that is extremely important for those who are sick, undernourished and for families with very young children. The young goats born can be sold and provide the family with an income. This enables them to pay for clothes and schooling for their children. A goat cost 350 SEK. The goats are bought at a livestock market with the help of prospective veterinarians from the university and the animals are then transported by truck to the villages. Often it is the village leaders, municipal leaders or teachers at the village schools who recommend which families should get a goat, because they know where the needs are the greatest.
