Ti Cabrit (Little Goat)

       Last year we asked if anyone would like to buy a goat for a family in need in Haiti.  We received an overwhelming response to that plea and we bought many goats.  Two that we bought were for Chaveneau.  One for Isaie’s family and one for my other friend, Marie-Rose.  This was in April of 2016- six months before the storm.  We just wanted them to know we appreciated their friendship and that they were not forgotten by us even though we didn’t still go to that community as a ministry.

       Each goat was a female and each had two offspring.  In an area where almost everyone lost their livestock, all but one of the goats made it through the storm.  One of Isaie’s baby goats died but here are some photos of the other.  She entertained me all day long- always into something.

(**By the way- both momma goats have been bred again and we THINK they are both expecting.  Soon there will be NINE goats from our original two purchased.  And, two of the baby goats are girls so the cycle will continue.  We would LOVE to buy goats for more families that lost them in the storm.  A pregnant female goat costs about $ 60- $ 70 US at the local market.  If you would like to buy a goat, please visit our website and make a note for “goat”.  We are asking for $ 75 for each to be sure to have enough when at the market.  Extra money not spent will go for feed or veterinary care.)
