Children like Risaaq – facing prolonged drought
Risaaq, five, and his family from Somalia received seven chickens and one cockeral to help ensure continued food security and livelihood after a two-year drought. Although the cost of feeding the chickens is high and poses a challenge, the sale of eggs helps cover basic family needs, such as purchasing water, soap, and feed from the market. Additionally, consuming eggs provides valuable protein for the children, improving their nutrition, especially when meat is too expensive. Risaaq's mum expresses gratitude to World Vision for their support, as the sales of eggs contribute significantly to the family's well-being and happiness.
