Embarking On The Journey With Gumati's Family Through Goat Farming 🐐🌱

Embarking on a New Journey: Gumati, alongside her daughter, stands at the threshold of a transformative adventure as they prepare to embark on their goat farming journey. As the fourth recipient of three goats, they are not just cultivating livestock; they are nurturing dreams and sowing the seeds of a brighter future on their land. This moment is more than just a farming endeavor; it represents hope, resilience, and the power of determination. With each goat that grazes on their land, Gumati and her daughter are weaving a tapestry of opportunity and growth, proving that with hard work and dedication, the possibilities are endless. As they nurture their goats, they are also cultivating values of responsibility and perseverance. This journey is a testament to their commitment to creating a sustainable future, not just for themselves, but for generations to come. Each step they take is a step toward independence, and a legacy that will inspire others. Gumati and her daughter remind us all that every great journey begins with a single step. With courage in their hearts and a vision for the future, they are ready to embrace the challenges and rewards that lie ahead. Together, they will rise, one goat at a time, toward a future filled with promise and possibility.

The Benefits of Patience and Perseverance

On March 4, 2025, Thirst No More Corporation contacted our partners at DonorSee to help raise funds for Gumati Lungeli Magar and her family of four. For the past five months, we have been appealing to our donors to finance the purchase of four goats, the building of a goat pen, veterinary care for the animals' health, and other associated costs.

Thanks to the efforts of HTCDN executive director Raju Bhitrakoti, who also serves as the TNMC Coordinator for Nepal, and his team in Nepal, we have been able to assist 4 families in establishing successful goat farming businesses on their own land. Reports indicate that the first 3 families have already doubled their initial number of goats and are thriving.

A Hearty Thank You For Your Support

As we reflect on the 5 months it took us to finally fully fund this 4th project, Thirst No More Corporation is already in the process of commencing with the 5th project of our initial program. Along with Raju and his team, we are accessing the progress of each family in the program, with plans to expand this effort to 1,800 households in the Chitwan District, which would include the following: five urban municipalities:

• Bharatpur Metropolitan City 

• Ratnanagar Municipality

• Khairahani Municipality

• Madi Municipality 

• Rapti Municipality

  

We are presently seeking more funding to uphold our vision of aiding impoverished families in rural Nepal by promoting entrepreneurial initiatives that provide economic assistance to families striving to make ends meet. Gumati, the previous 3 families that have already started their goat farming businesses, and our soon to start 5th project, are the launching point of this much larger vision for Nepal. By contributing to these projects, you are not just helping the initials families like Gumati's, you are empowering many other families to build a better future. Let's come together to make a lasting impact in the lives for these deserving families. Your generosity will be greatly appreciated! 🌟

Support the Living through Your Giving

As we collaborate with Raju and our partners at DonorSee on the fifth project, your general donations for Nepal are certainly welcome. The easiest way to contribute is by sending your tax-deductible gift to Thirst No More Corporation via Zelle. If asked for the organization, you can use either our name or the email address thirstnomore22@yahoo.com and mention Nepal Goat Farming. This ensures that 100% of your donation goes directly to the project. Aside from our upcoming fifth project, we are planning to support an additional 1,800

families, with an investment of $600 USD per household, totaling $1,080,000 USD. Our goal is to support all these families in the region over the next 6 years. We will proceed with 50 households at a time, each benefiting from 3 goats, a goat pen, medical care, and other necessities. Over the next 6 years, we aim to establish 36 models, each comprising 50 families. At a cost of $600 USD per household, and over 72 months (6 years), we aim to secure funding averaging $15,000 USD per month. Your support through individual donations and by recommending our project to institutions seeking such charitable opportunities will help us achieve this vision for rural Nepal and assist a community that has been greatly underserved.

Thank you!
