During this giving season, let's embrace a cause that enriches lives at Bumbogo Secondary School in Rwanda. Our team at Feeding Mouths, Filling Minds is proud to introduce our Poultry Initiative, following the success of our agriculture project. This initiative is a commitment to providing essential nutrition to every student, fostering both academic and personal growth.

During our visit in May, Father Noel shared the triumph of our initial project: a school farm yielding fruits and vegetables, significantly reducing the school's budget previously spent on these items. Now, we're expanding with the Poultry Initiative. Starting with 1000 hens, the project will not only provide eggs for the students' diets but also generate income for the school through sales. This income will support ongoing costs like chicken feed and veterinary care. The school's farm already hosts rabbits, cows, and pigs, whose by-products are used as compost and manure, making this a holistic approach to sustainability.

Why Poultry?

Poultry farming offers more than just eggs – it's a sustainable way to enhance student nutrition. Eggs, rich in protein, are crucial for cognitive development and maintaining a balanced diet, which is essential for academic success and general health.

Our Goals:

Successfully establish and manage the poultry operations.

Consistently provide protein-packed eggs for student meals.

Boost student well-being through better nutrition.

Your Role:

We need your support to turn this dream into a reality. A contribution of $3,100 can kickstart this impactful project. Your donation means more than just providing meals; it’s investing in the future of these young minds.
