Program Description

The Cattle Raising Program is a livestock and husbandry loan program, which offers financial assistance as incentives to encourage parents to keep their children in school to obtain basic education, while promoting economic self-sufficiency for the child and their family. The Cattle Raising Program (CRP) provides each child with a calf and hands-on training regarding basic husbandry along with an annual education stipend to cover tuition costs and school supplies.  In return, each child participant is required to maintain 100% school attendance and minimum grade averages for at least two years.
