Hannah distributes cows & goats to Child Headed Households
With an endeavor to socio-economically assist the Child Heads of Households, Hannah Ministry distributes the goats which help the child-run families in Byumba in two important ways: they provide important nutrition and they help ensure economic sustainability. The breed of goat is chosen based on its quick reproductive cycle so many families are welcoming a new baby goat twice a year, giving them many options. For more, email: hannahministryinfo@gmail.com

Young Women Assistance
As Hannah Ministry cares for vulnerable children, especially girls, it has facilitated the single mothers to create cooperatives. Currently, 6 cooperatives have been created and one of them (pictured) weaves baskets.
Basket weaving is part of their income generating activities. Your support for their cooperatives will raise them from poverty which is the main cause for undesired pregnancy. Therefore, they will be empowered to live on their own.

Building Homes for shelterless Children
Hannah's Ministry helps local child-run households by building and maintaining their houses. Local materials are used to make tiles on this roof and cost around $200. Iron sheets are much more reliable and environmentally friendly but cost $400. These roofs provide security from the heavy rains that come through this part of Africa.
