The Fat Cow Program is designed to create a lasting impact through sustainable practices. Here’s how it works:
- Sustainable Income: Each family receives a cow, which provides a continuous source of income through milk production. Families can sell the milk in local markets, ensuring a steady cash flow that helps improve their financial stability.
- Breeding and Growth: The cows are bred, producing calves that can be raised and sold. This not only increases the family’s herd but also generates additional income. The sale of calves helps diversify income sources and reduces dependency on a single source of revenue.
- Community Impact: As families benefit from the program, they are encouraged to help others in their community. This can involve sharing knowledge about cow care and breeding, selling calves at affordable prices, or even donating a cow to another family in need. This ripple effect ensures that more families can experience similar benefits, fostering community growth and development.
- Improved Nutrition: The milk from the cows provides essential nutrients for the families, improving their overall health and well-being. Better nutrition leads to healthier, more productive individuals who can contribute more effectively to their community.
- Economic Stability: By creating a sustainable model, the Fat Cow Program helps families achieve long-term economic stability. The continuous cycle of milk production and breeding ensures that families have ongoing sources of income and resources, reducing vulnerability to economic shocks.
- Empowerment and Self-Sufficiency: The training and education provided alongside the cows empower families to manage their livestock effectively. This knowledge equips them with the skills needed to maintain and grow their herds, fostering self-sufficiency and reducing reliance on external aid.
The Fat Cow Program’s focus on sustainability and community impact ensures that it creates lasting change, empowering families to build better futures for themselves and their communities.
The Story Behind Become More
Wade Roberts and his brothers always had a passion for making a difference. Inspired by their own upbringing, they knew that to create lasting change in Cambodia, they needed a sustainable solution.
Wade and his brothers started by studying the challenges faced by Cambodian families. They saw that many struggled with poverty and lacked reliable sources of income.
Despite their determination, they couldn’t find a clear solution and often felt discouraged.
One day, while reminiscing about their childhood, Wade remembered their experiences growing up on a farm. It struck him that farming had always provided their family with stability and resources. This insight led them to consider how agricultural initiatives could be adapted to help Cambodian families.
They began researching and discovered that investing in cows could yield a remarkable return. In fact, they found that for every dollar invested, the return could be as high as five times that amount. Cows not only provided milk, which could be consumed or sold, but also offered a sustainable source of income through breeding and selling calves.
Excited by this revelation, Wade and his brothers envisioned the Fat Cow Program. This initiative would provide Cambodian families with cows, along with training on how to care for them and maximize their benefits. The program aimed to create a ripple effect: as families thrived, they could help others in their community, fostering a cycle of growth and prosperity.
The Fat Cow Program wasn’t just about giving cows; it was about giving hope, stability, and a future to those who needed it most. Wade and his brothers’ journey from problem to solution showcases their commitment to making a sustainable impact and their belief in the power of community-driven change.
