Plan Moo was started in 2008 providing a micro-business and income for many of our families with cows and milk for, amongst others costs, secondary school, college and University for their children. Whilst the majority of families now benefit from Plan Moo we plan to increase the herd.
Plan Cuy was started in 2011 and involves the rearing and selling of guinea pigs to help cover secondary education costs. A cuy house has to be built first to protect the guinea pigs from the elements, with separate sections during mating. 10 families have benefited so far.
Plan Huerta, started in 2012, invests in seeds, fencing, wages and fertilizer to start crop-cycles with the income reinvested into further crops, wages and the schools. Several families have benefited so far and we plan to expand over the next two years with more families and the schools.
Plan Pollo was started in 2015 and involves investing in chicks, feed and infrastructure with the income from egg sales and meat being shared between the families and the school costs each month. 20 families have benefited from Plan Pollo so far and we plan to expand the program over the next two years.
