Thirteen-year-old Dante Reminick from Minneapolis pioneered the Give a goat program in 2013. He raised funds to buy 50 fertile goats and helped distribute them while in the Mbale region of Uganda. The Give a goat program provides a source of income for kids who have lost their parents or families whose breadwinner has become ill or disabled.  Each $125 donated purchases a fertile milk goat for a child or family in need in a developing country in Africa.The return on your investment continues to grow … it’s a pay-it-forward project. The kids who are provided with a goat must agree to give a nanny goat born to another child in need, and those children will do the same. These children can sell their goat’s produce and offspring to pay for living expenses such as food, shelter and school fees. The program also teaches kids to care for something and gives them the ability to give back to the community that has taken them in.
