Why
Send a Cow ?
The gift of just one cow can make an enormous difference to a
desperately poor East African family, enabling them to combat
malnutrition with protein-rich milk and earn an income from the sale of
the surplus milk. Manure from cows and other livestock can also double
and even treble crop yields – making a real difference to families
dependent on tiny plots of exhausted soil for their living. Families can
invest their increased income in a better future: sending their children
to school, or starting new enterprises, such as poultry breeding. Most
of our livestock goes to women, because they are usually the poorest
people in their communities and because this is the best way to ensure
that help reaches the whole family. Our initial gifts go on multiplying
indefinitely, as each woman who receives livestock promises to hand on
her animal's first female offspring to another poor woman farmer, who
will do the same in her turn. We also work particularly with disabled
people, child-headed orphan families and families bringing up young
orphaned relatives.

It's not just cows
Under the StockAid programme, they receive smaller stock, such as goats,
pigs or poultry. They are thus able to begin rearing livestock even
though they cannot provide the shelter or fodder needed for a cow. This
is particularly helpful to families suffering the impact of drought,
AIDS and conflict.
