If you are looking for a gift that’ll last longer than a chocolate egg this Easter, a FARM-Friends chicken is just the answer. For just £10 you receive two gifts in one, as when you purchase this charity gift you will receive :

• A cute model chicken
• A pack of ‘happy families’ cards explaining how your donation is helping African farmers work their way out of poverty.
• An innovative and exciting gift idea

In rural Tanzania over 70% of children will follow in their parent’s footsteps and become farmers, yet practical agriculture is not part of the school curriculum. FARM-Africa’s agricultural and environmental education project teaches children skills at school that will enable them to farm successfully.

One of the ways FARM-Africa do this is by providing the schools with chickens and coops. The children then learn how to care for the chickens. The main benefits of this project are the new skills which the children can share with the rest of their family, as well as a much improved diet thanks to the protein rich eggs.

Help to farm Africa with a perfect Easter gift for your friends and family!
