Addo’s Story: The Transformative Power of a Goat
Growing up in Ghana, Addo dreamed of pursuing an education to serve others in the medical field. However, in a large, polygamous family with limited resources, even meeting basic needs was a daily challenge. The prospect of an education seemed out of reach, as many of Addo’s peers were forced to leave school due to poverty. Yet, Addo remained hopeful, determined to learn all he could despite the obstacles.
At a critical time, hope arrived in the form of a pregnant goat, generously provided by supporters like YOU!
What might seem like a simple gift became a lifeline for Addo and his family. The goat’s offspring provided a steady source of income, allowing them to sell the subsequent goats each year to cover Addo's school expenses.
But Addo's journey doesn’t end there... Today, thanks to your support, Addo is in his second year of nursing school! Through The Goat Project, Addo and his family were introduced to Christ and began attending a local church. He has since become a Bible study teacher and a respected Christian student leader, uplifting his community not only spiritually but also through his growing knowledge of medical care.
Addo's first Goat produced offspring year after year allowing him to attend both grade school and begin studying in a nursing program.
With heartfelt gratitude, Addo shares:
"The Goat Project rescued me from a future of uncertainty. I am profoundly thankful to Call of Hope and those who give for changing my life and allowing me the opportunity to change others' lives."
The gift of a goat has not only given Addo an education but has also empowered him to become a beacon of hope and inspiration to his community, shining the light of Jesus wherever he goes!
Thank you for making such a significant difference!
If you haven't had a chance to support The Goat Project yet, there's still time to make a lasting impact.
Our Frontline Workers are in contact with many children in need of education support. Like Addo, they dream of one day becoming doctors, lawyers, engineers, or skilled tradespeople. Your support can be the key to turning their dreams into reality!
Thank you for considering this opportunity to bring the hope of Jesus to those who need it most!
