A team from Corvallis, Oregon in the USA went to Soroti Uganda to participate in 5 day retreat of encouragement for 100 students that are sponsored by families in the US. While on this trip the team also distributed 60 pregnant goats to widows and orphans. The recipients are not allowed to eat the goats, they can only sell or trade them for needed items. As these goats have babies, the recipients are able to build a sizable herd to can make a significant impact on their finanicial wellbeing. This is one of the most impactful programs that we sponsor in Uganda. We have distributed close to 500 goats in the past several years.
