Pass-On Livestock

The community’s nutrition and wealth can drastically improve through the small push of an animal support to beneficiaries under our pass-on program. An initial recipient receives an animal, which is allowed to give birth. The offspring is then passed on to a second recipient, while the subsequent young delivered from the initially donated animal remain with the first recipient. Our goat pass-on program is now self-sustaining.

The program can transform a family’s life, as milk, eggs, and meat add much-needed protein to the diet and bring in additional income to the family.

Dairy Cow Farming

K2 TASO has joined the Malawian government’s efforts in promoting dairy cow farming. Dairy cows are part of our pass-on program. We educate farmers in proper care and housing, and provide animal husbandry services to breed more cows to pass on to other beneficiaries.
