The Goat Foundation
Giving Hope By Giving Goats
A non-profit organization founded in 2019 under the principle of Cause Capitalism, dedicated to giving vulnerable widows in various communities within Africa a means to earn sustainable income and become self-reliant.
Our Foundation Story
The Goat Foundation is a non-profit organization, founded in 2019 under the principle of Cause Capitalism. Its aim is to give the vulnerable in various communities within Africa a means to earn sustainable income and become self-reliant, with its key focus being on vulnerable widows.
Under Cause Capitalism, a for profit organization chooses a non-profit organization not as a gimmick, but as a true sustainable partner. The Goat Foundation is the sustainable partner of Financially Fit, LLC a for profit company offering financial literacy education through principle centered wealth.
The Foundation supports climate smart agriculture through the championing of goat farming, where vulnerable widows in arid and semi-arid areas get a pair of goats each with the aim of giving them an opportunity to create wealth for themselves and attain self reliance.
