Goat - £25
Did you know that a goat can provide up to 12 pints of milk a week? And that can make a big difference to a family in a poor community whether they drink it or sell it for an important, additional source of income. And it doesn’t end there.
Goats also provide a free source of fertiliser to help crops grow! This unusual gift includes feed and veterinary care so that the goat stays healthy and produces lots of milk!
Kids (the human kind that is) will love the gift of a goat. Order it as a ‘gift for children' and it comes FREE with a funsheet in which children can meet Giggles the Goat.
This gift is also available as one of our Kid's gifts, which come with a a free kid's funsheet, jam-packed with games, jokes and an illustrated story to colour in.

How a goat helps to provide food for a family
Earthquake survivor Jamila Begum, who received a goat from a CAFOD-funded project.
Jamila was widowed by a major earthquake that struck the North West Frontier Province, Pakistan. As well as killing her husband, the earthquake destroyed her home and she lost the two buffalo that she’d kept for milking to help feed her family.
The practical gift of a milking goat from CAFOD’s partner, CRS, is helping her to ensure that, every day, she has something nutritious to feed her two sons.
It is just one of the many animals that have been given to vulnerable people around the world.
