I am a woman champion advocate for widows and single mothers in a small village in kisii county, Kenya called kenyenya. I work with the women to help them be able to provide for themselves and their families as they are the sole providers in their homes. The women keep chicken which they sell and also sell the eggs from the chicken to feed their families and to buy feed for the chicken.

There is also a group project where we have all contributed part of our personal chicken which we use to learn and produce from the chicken also help the community. Any chicken from the group farm that can be sold is a generated profit for the group.

I keep chicken, mostly layers which I sell the eggs and the chicken to help fund the women group and also help the women care for their families. I also use my small chicken farm for learning when I invite agricultural experts to teach me on better ways of rearing chicken and other farm animals. I have recently developed an interest in pig rearing which I am still learning and in the process of setting up. This is a plan that I would like to accomplish by the end of the year.

I would wish to get more funding for this as the returns will be emense.

I am also donating my farm space for my neighbors to learn more or what we have to learn in regards to pig rearing. I am hoping that in future this can be a community project and my village wi benefit from these.

I have recently acquired a cow that I am rearing and feeding to be able to get milk for my personal use and if there will be excess then I will sell to the local dairy shop.

Getting equipment/ grinder/ slicer that will help me process the meat I get from my pig farm.

The processed meat I can sell in the local meat shop, in form of chunks and slices.

The rest I can donate to a local home fo consumption
