The Poultry Farm project helps vulnerable households build a reliable income and improve nutrition through small-scale, home-based poultry farming. Many families affected by poverty, displacement, or climate shocks lack stable livelihoods despite having the capacity to work. This project removes that barrier by providing chickens, starter feed, basic housing materials, and practical training so participants can begin earning immediately.

Designed primarily for household use, the project enables families to generate income through egg production and the sale of surplus birds, while strengthening daily food security.

Women are often the primary beneficiaries, managing poultry at home alongside household responsibilities. Ongoing technical guidance and health checks help reduce disease risk and improve long-term sustainability.

Donations support a practical livelihood model with measurable outcomes. Families begin earning within weeks, household nutrition improves through regular access to eggs, and reliance on emergency aid decreases. Poultry farming offers a low-cost, scalable pathway to financial stability, allowing families to reinvest gradually and plan for the future. This simple intervention delivers strong value for money by combining income generation, nutrition, and dignity into a single, sustainable solution.

For many families, daily life is shaped by uncertainty. Irregular work, rising food prices, and fragile incomes mean parents often struggle to provide consistently for their children. Even small setbacks can push households deeper into debt or food insecurity, leaving little room for planning or hope.

The Poultry Farm project changes this reality. With training, livestock, and ongoing support, families gain a dependable source of income they can manage from home. Egg production creates regular earnings, nutrition improves, and confidence grows. What begins as a modest livelihood becomes a foundation for stability, dignity, and long-term resilience, helping families move beyond survival toward self-reliance.

Before joining the poultry project, Rahima relied on irregular day labour and often borrowed food during lean seasons. Receiving vaccinated chickens, training, and support changed everything. 

She now earns a weekly income from egg sales, feeds her children more regularly, and manages her own small enterprise. Her confidence has grown, restoring dignity and stability through honest, independent work.

The Poultry Farm project is delivered through Islamic Help and trusted local partners with established expertise in livelihoods. Beneficiaries are selected using community-based vulnerability assessments, prioritising low-income households with limited productive assets. Each poultry package includes verified livestock, housing materials, feed, and training, tracked from procurement to distribution.

Field teams monitor poultry health, production levels, and household outcomes through scheduled follow-ups.

Technical guidance and vaccinations reduce disease risk and protect donor investment. Income consistency, flock survival, and household nutrition improvements are recorded as key indicators.

Financial controls align with UK charity regulations and internal audit standards. Project data is reviewed regularly to ensure accountability and continuous improvement. Clear documentation and verification processes ensure donations are used exactly as intended, providing donors with transparency, traceability, and confidence in measurable, sustainable impact.

Thank you for supporting dignified livelihoods. Your generosity helps families earn independently, improve nutrition, and regain stability.

Every poultry project creates lasting change, replacing uncertainty with confidence and empowering households to build resilient futures through self-reliance, dignity, and opportunity.
