I wonder whether her family was previously a beneficiary of the goat gift?! Praise God for how he moves in such practical ways to show his love.

I raise dairy goats and my sponsored child in Haiti has purchased goats with the gifts I send her and her family. I love to hear of this kind of assistance - the kind that raises people up rather than keeping them down. Keep up the good work, Compassion. This is a heartwarming story.

Over the years I have heard many stories like this where a whole community is helped toward becoming self sufficient. I remember on where they helped the village to become pig farmers and they were self sufficient within a year! This is one of the reasons I love Compassion so much.

Congratulate all who gave funds for glory of God and their time too. I participated in writing the proposal...now outside Compassion for studies in New Zealand I still feel blessed as if I got the goat myself! God bless you all for giving.

Just simply giving money to the Massai wouldn't have done much for long. Giving them a resource they could relate to and use to make their money themselves, not only gives them in come, it gives them dignity and some self-confidence that through the strength of God they are able to provide for their family. What a blessing! Thank you Compassion for responding to the call and answering the need. God bless you all tremendously.
