This project increased annual incomes for Nepalese women participating in the program from $125 to $846, plus leaving them with a small herd that will continue to produce more goats - and more income. With your help we can continue this project in another community!
"Namaste! my name is Sita Neupane. I am from Dhuskun 1, in Sindhupalchok District. We are 5 members in our family. Before we started to work with Namlo/DSCBD we didn’t have any ideas on to make money; even we couldn’t write or read. We requested to NI/DSCBD for a literacy program for the women’s group. The Literacy program helped us to learn to read, write and to learn many new things. Out of the many projects supported by NI/DSCBD- the goat project has been very useful for many families. I received training on goat farming and then received economic support to build an improved goat pen. After I improved our goat pen, I received one female goat from NI/DSCBD in 2016. In 2017, I had 3 mother goats and 5 kids. Out of 5 kids I gifted one to a new member. Then in 2018, I had 4 mother goats, 4 male goats and 6 kids. I sold 4 male goats and earned $225, so I earned $900.00. In 2019 I had 6 mother goats, 5 male goats and 9 kids. I sold 5 male goats and earned $1,165.00 in total. So this project has been helping me to manage my personal expenses, education for my children, medicines and clothes for us."
