Located at 3328 N. Cliff Avenue, the old building is a new facility from which programs will be implemented. The Sunday School classes at American Reformed Church have been buying goats. Most of the other classes already have enough to purchase at least one goat. This program will restock the household goats for 2,500 families in famine stricken Mozambique at the request of the Presbyterian Church in Mozambique. The project aims to supply two female goats to every family, and one male goat for breeding per 200 households, and training and support for these families.
Goats provide an instant protein source for children, most of whom are undernourished.
Goats can live on almost nothing because they forage for food. Goats are peoples livelihood in Mozambique. Subsistance farmers generally build up their herds until they can sell enough goats to be able to purchase a cow.
