East African Chicken Project
Building a new coop in Kenya
Kenya
This chicken project was started in the Mukuru slums in Nairobi in a school yard. It was home to over 100 chickens. Unfortunately during COVID the chickens were eaten for survival. We hope to revive this project in 2027.
Tanzania
We currently have more than 40 families who have been given 5 hens and 1 rooster. During the COVID-19 pandemic many people were out of jobs with no way to support their families. The chickens have given them food and an income. This project is managed by Golle Mbwambo. They have started their own group with the hopes of doing tabletop savings and getting extra income for school fees. Recently they planted banana trees and look forward to selling their bananas in the market.
