Why not get your teacher and friends to fundraise for a whole flock?

Millions of people around the world can't earn enough to feed their family and buy things like medicines and school books. So showing them how to rear poultry (turkeys, ducks and chickens) can make a big difference to their lives.

The birds lay eggs and the eggs hatch into birds, which lay eggs… and so on. A family can make money selling the extra eggs and the birds at market, and then pass on their new skills to others.

You can give someone else the chance to improve their life by 'buying' turkeys, ducks or geese through Christian Aid's virtual gifts website Present Aid. The money you spend on your gift goes towards supporting Christian Aid's work in poor countries.

Ask your parent, carer or teacher to check out Present Aid.
