Project Goat Milk!


What’s new with Compassion in Action?

Project Goat Milk!

Project Goat Milk?? What in the world is that?

Our sweet village friend, Sauda, (a single mom with Aids) has just had a precious baby boy. Because there is a risk of transferring HIV to the baby via the breast milk, we are supplying Sauda with goat milk.  However, the cost of buying goat milk and having it delivered is quite expensive and can even be unreliable at times. The other day, the milk that was supposed to be delivered was never sent and the baby was hungry throughout the night with nothing to drink but water.  Her last baby died of HIV at only 2 years of age and we don’t want this new little one to get infected.

Compassion in Action has funded one month’s supply of goat’s milk, but we are looking to raise money to buy Sauda a milking goat so she always has a supply of milk for her baby. We don’t have a store down the road to run and buy formula!

You can help save a baby’s life by donating to buy a goat for Sauda and her sweet baby boy. If you can help, comment on our blog and let us know you want to get involved in Project Goat Milk!







 Up and coming: This week Compassion in Action is having a family from the village over for dinner to love on them and build a relationship. Next week, we will be building a kitchen. The Hurley family will be on furlough this summer so this will be our last project for a few months.
