How to Donate a Goat and Change a Family’s Life This Christmas?

How to donate a goat and make a lasting difference in the lives of those in need is simpler than you might think. Through GFA World’s Christmas Gift Catalog, you can give the gift of a goat to a family in poverty, offering them a source of income, nourishment, and an opportunity for a better future. Kripal’s story shows the profound impact a gift like this can have on a struggling family.

Kripal and his wife, Bani, lived in sorrow and hardship, burdened by poverty and Bani’s mysterious illness. Despite their efforts, the family could not find relief, and their financial struggles worsened due to mounting medical expenses. Observing their plight, believers in their village brought their struggles to GFA Pastor Taranga, who, along with a group of believers, visited Kripal’s family. They prayed for healing and peace, and over time, Bani’s health was restored, and the family began to find hope.

However, the financial strain from years of hardship remained heavy. That’s when GFA World’s Christmas Gift Catalog delivered a tangible solution. At a gift distribution event, Kripal received two goats—an income-generating gift that would completely transform his family’s circumstances. Within a year, the goats had multiplied to 12, allowing Kripal to sell some to pay for his children’s school fees, purchase food, and even replace their leaky roof with tin sheets. What was once a home filled with despair became a place of joy and gratitude, all because of the humble gift of a goat.[1]

Donating a goat or a pair of them through GFA World’s Christmas Gift Catalog is simple yet impactful. Each donation funds the purchase of a goat, which is then given to a family like Kripal’s. The goats are carefully selected to thrive in the recipient’s environment, ensuring they can multiply and provide milk, meat and continued income. These gifts enable families to build sustainable livelihoods and break free from the cycle of poverty.

Additionally, GFA World ensures that every gift is accompanied by prayer and Christian love. Recipients not only receive practical help but also hear the Good News message, experiencing the love of Jesus in action.

For families like Kripal’s, a goat is more than just livestock—it’s a gateway to a better life. By donating through GFA World’s Christmas Gift Catalog, you are not only providing practical help but also sharing God’s love in a powerful way. Your gift could be the start of a life-changing journey for a family in desperate need. This Christmas, consider donating a goat and becoming part of a story like Kripal’s—a story of renewed promise, healing and a brighter future.
