LEBANON

Goat Raising for Milk Production

Each participant receives:

  • 15 pregnant special-race goats
  • A contribution in building, equipping, and fencing the goat house
  • Goat feed for 2 months
  • Skills development services through formal training and on-site follow-up
  • Access to quality feed

This program was launched in 2007 and is still underway.

Elie Haddad (left with H.E. Ambassador Michele Sison) is a beneficiary of the WRF-Jizzine Goats program.  He recently won the 2nd prize of 88,000,000 Lebanese Liras in the Lebanese Lottery. After taxes, he will receive approximately LL 79,000,000 or around $53,000.


This windfall will make a huge difference in his life, enabling him to pay off his debts and become more active in the Coop program.. WRF is most excited that he will continue with his goat farming and milk production and that his winnings will raise his interest in his business and the cooperative and not move him away from his current work.  We expect to see great success in the coming months.
