The first ‘Christmas Piglets’ arrive at the farm

We were blown away by the response to our Christmas Alternative Gifts campaign - 51 piglets were ‘bought’ giving us the nice challenge of working out where we were going to keep them all :)

As you might remember, we had asked people to buy piglets as Alternative Christmas Gifts. We'll keep them for 6 months and then sell with profit, buying more piglets with the proceeds as well as help fund the White Eagles Project.

Well, we are happy to inform everyone that contributed that we have bought 10 piglets so far, and we have them with us at the farm. We will get more this month and next, thereby staggering when we sell them - we don’t want to create a glut on the local market :)

Stephen - one happy Farm Manager

Steven the farm manager is very happy that these piglets have come and he has been working hard to renovate the first pigsty, making it stronger to withstand attacks from wild dogs. Steven says that within a month, all the sties will be ready for their new guests.

That'll keep the wild beasts out!

We are so grateful for your contribution and may the good Lord bless you so much!
If you would like to contribute to the cost of renovating the sties, please do! Its never too late. Just head to: https://mydonate.bt.com/charities/ugandariveroflifeministries
