These fantastic little feathered friends remain one of our most popular gifts — and that’s because they look the goods, and also do good! Training women in income-generating activities such as poultry rearing in Laos gives them the opportunity to earn money for themselves and their families. Don’t chicken out — buy two, four or half a dozen today!
Far out, man! This groovy chicken is helping families in Laos get a much-needed income. In Laos, Oxfam Australia works to increase access to food by providing families with the funds to buy chickens. Households can then use eggs to earn an income at the market or to eat themselves. “ To reduce poverty in a sustainable way, Oxfam Australia provides animal vaccinations and funds for the purchase of poultry. Providing a healthy chicken for a family can make the difference between nutritional deficiency and growth, poverty and security.” Danielle Cantlon, East Asia Program Officer, Oxfam Australia
