A goat provides milk, meat, fertilizer, offspring, and income to an entire family for years to come! This gift includes training on the best ways to care for the goat and to use what it produces. The recipient family will happily pay-it-forward by giving the goat’s first kid to a neighbouring family in need. Make your money GOAT even further! We’re committed to matching every donation, dollar-for-dollar, to this item up to $25K from special funds. That’s how powerful we know it is! Details at: fhcanada.org/match
HOW THE GIFT GUIDE WORKS
A PLAN IS MADE
with the community
Rather than just giving our partner communities what we think they need, we ask the community which items or programs their families will find most helpful. After calculating extra costs like the training and education that accompany each gift, we share those items and plans with you!
YOU SHOP
and send a greeting card.
Browse through the gifts and learn how each contributes towards a community becoming sustainable. For each item you purchase, you can choose a free greeting card, or print-from-home card or an e-card to send to your friends, family, or clients to recognize that a gift was made in their name. Each card explains how the specific gift will help a developing community.
RESOURCES ARE SENT
to the community
In-country staff work with their team, local markets, and small businesses to source manpower and resources. They then incorporate them into the community’s sustainable development strategy to ensure the gifts have the maximum impact.
And the community continues working toward graduation!
Each gift helps families and their communities achieve their goals and move from stuck to thriving. Since 1994, nearly 70 communities worldwide have graduated with FH Canada!
Donations to a Sturdy Goat and to Girl Power! are matched 1 to 1, dollar to dollar, by generous, anonymous Canadian donors. That means not only is your contribution towards these items doubled, but so is your impact!
Given by generous, anonymous donors, this commitment will match every donation up to a limited amount of $25,000 in total donations towards the Sturdy Goat this season. No kidding around there! It's an udderly good investment towards helping farming family improve their nutrition and income with a goat. This commitment will also match every donation up to a limited amount of $15,000 in total donations towards Girl Power! this season. Now there's a glass ceiling to break through! It's a strong way to help get girls and women into school and new opportunities, and move communities into healthy, respectful practices. Now that’s making the most of your gift by teaming up with other Canadians.
