The Project we are helping - GVI Ecuador!

The hope is that all children graduating from primary school will have the opportunity to carry on into secondary education; which can be very costly. Currently there are 2 great sustainable plans in place to help!

1 – PLAN MOO! A child is given a milking cow – then they sell the milk or make cheese & yogurt to sell & the money they earn goes into their high school education fund. Also, any baby cows produced are passed onto siblings or other children within the community.

2 – PLAN CUY (Guinea pigs)! Similar idea, a cuy house is built & cuys are given to a child – which breed like rabbits, and then sold (guinea pig is a delicacy in Ecuador) for a profit & again this goes into the child’s high school education fun!

These are great sustainable projects which need funds to be continued.

To give you an idea of costs - it costs about £560 for a cow or you could think of it like this - £15 for the tail, £20 per leg, £30 for the lovely face, £40 for the front end, £50 for the rear end, £60 for the rump, £60 for the ribs and £70 for the milking area/the udders! For the cuys, its £800 to build a guinea pig house and £10 per guinea!
