Cow
Sponsorship Project
By this program IRFF like to help family in need in Africa and other part of the world, were the same program can be applied, according to the local circumstances.
Basically a sponsor can provide with 400 usd a milk-cow to a family in need. Usually we like to focus the help towards widows. The donor will keep the ownership of the cow, and it will be good if he can go in time, and visit the family.
With the 400 USD, IRFF can provide a good breed of Milk-cow, a basic training for the family, by professionals, for a good way of taking care of the cow. Building a cow shed, medicine for the first 4-6 month for the cow, the first fodder until the family will be able to self sustain the program.
By this the mother will be able to sell the milk, pay the school fee for the children and improve the family diet. The first calf will be donated by this family, to a near family also in need of support. In this way a better relationship will be build among neighbor.
A local IRFF supervisor will coordinate the program. If you like to become a sponsor, please contact our office at luxembourg@irff-europe.org
