You can now buy goats and hens and roosters for families in need through Action Volunteer Alliance. When you purchase these gifts we will deliver them to families who need them the most in different communities throughout Nepal.
When you donate through AVA not only will we deliver these animals for you, we will make sure your gift keeps giving. When the families who receive these gifts start producing more animals they will donate the same amount given to them back to AVA and we will then deliver them to another family in need.
2 hens and a rooster is a wonderful gift to give a family in a developing country. 1 hen can produce up to 260 eggs a year. By giving 2 hens and a rooster not only are you providing a family with nutritious food, you are giving them a source of income to help change their lives forever.
Give the gift of a goat. Goats are easy to take care of, they eat grass and leaves which make them affordable for Nepali people to raise and they breed easily. Goats provide families with protein to keep them healthy and a source of income to make an incredible difference in their lives.
You can also build a toilet for a community in need. By providing a clean bathroom for a community, you will help stop the spread of diarrhea, dysentery, typhoid and cholera among other life threatening diseases and conditions. This gift will help save lives.
Our goal is to give out 500 animals by January 1st 2010. This is a new program for AVA, it officially started on October 12th 2009. This year all animals will be given out in Nepal by our partner organization Nepal Volunteer Helping Organization or NEVHO. We have been working with NEVHO since we opened in March of 2007.
We decided to start this program because it’s a great way to let people donate and know specifically where their money is being spent. This also allows people to see how much good their donation has created in someone else’s life. Action Volunteer Alliance is a registered charity in Canada and tax receipts will be issued for all donations.
