Mthaleni Orphan Centre – The Chicks Have Arrived!
We have achieved our goal in establishing a self-generating income initiative.
Here is some basic information:
– In February this year, we had 500 chickens/broilers arrive for our first barn
– Goal is to have 3 operational barns, each with 350 to 750 chickens in the next couple of months.
The profit made by selling these chickens will contribute to reducing LifeChild’s operating costs. Through this project, we too will be able to teach the orphans skills related to running the project, from rearing the chickens to business management. A huge thank you to our sponsors, Peter and Kim Aleman from America and ESKOM.
