A flock of chicks changes lives

Your flock of chickens gift donation helps provide a family in need with a starter flock of 10 to 50 chicks, along with the training that will empower them to turn your donation into a lifetime of opportunity. Each flock of chicks:

  • Provides eggs and protein for nourishment
  • Boosts income through sales of extra eggs and offspring
  • Ensures security for generations through Passing on the Gift

Chickens require little space and can thrive on readily available scraps; this allows families to make money from the birds without spending much. And since a good hen can lay up to 200 eggs a year, your flock of chickens gift provides a steady source of nutrition and income.
