Goat for Girl Project
Under the Goat for Badi girls project
a) Education Support
We have been supporting 6 most at vulnerable Badi girls from our target areas for their education support since July 2016. As our planning we have supported educational materials, tuition fee, uniform, school bag during the reporting period. One of them has just taken SEE (Secondary education examination as previous SLC (School Leaving Certificate). Now, she is waiting result and taking basic computer training. Other 5 girls have upgraded classes from their respective classes successfully.

b) Goats support
As our Planning, we provided 2 goats including 1 male and 1 female each beneficiary in the first quarter. Then we have provided 1 female goat for each beneficiary girl in every quarter. Similarly In total we have provide 5 goats including 4 female and 1 male for each girls during reporting period. Now, they have 6 to 9 goats whether we supported 5 goats each beneficiary. 2-4 baby goats were born from our supported goat. Almost goats are pregnant. It shows that it might be big herd in each beneficiary girl soon.

c. Goat Shelter
The GFG project has felt to make goat shelter for each beneficiary girl before supporting goats. Therefore, we made 6 goats for our 6 beneficiaries. A goat shelter was already built by Colorado USA YWAM team on last February 2016 before launching the Project. In First quarter, we made 5 goats and handed over to our each beneficiary girl. When we gave the shelter, they were very happy and encouraged to raising goat properly because they might have access to keep their goats in the well built shelter and also felling safe in the shelter.

d) Goat Keeping Training
During Reporting period, we held a 3 days goat raising training and 2 days refresher training for beneficiary women, girls with Volunteers in the coordination with local governmental vetenary office. A vetenary technician facilitator came from that office and taught them about different types of topics such as goat’s species, parasite prevention and control, sign and symptoms of local and seasonal diseases and treatment, facilities for treatment provided by Government different types of grasses and nutritional food for goat, Goat shelter’s hygiene sanitation, domestic food making process and Immunization. Discuss and conversation method was applied in the training. As their sharing, they have learnt more about goat rising skills and committed to implement whatever they learnt in the both training.
