MY CHICKENS!!!!

Just got this update from my sis, via GOOD GIFTS!!!

"Dear Good Giver

We went to India to see your chickens. The chickens and coop were given to women in the village, who as you see have little land, but can keep the chickens in their backyards. Note the different styles of coop!

The chicken owners are each going to give 120 rupee, 60 eggs and 2 chickens a year to a village health fund, which will provide health insurance for the whole village (not just those who have been given chickens).

They will generate income through the sale of eggs and chickens, and also, they told us, feed their children an egg a week!

They are a very poor community, with no land, so your gift of a chicken bank has really and truly transformed their lives.

A big thank you from them for giving them a brighter future.
