The chicken-raising project is to assist women in raising chickens for egg and meat production. The eggs and chicken meat will enhance the nutrition of their families. Selling eggs and chickens in nearby markets will give a source of income to the women, to help them provide for their families.

The bee-keeping project will train farmers and village women to keep bees for honey production. The honey will enhance the nutrition of their families and selling honey in nearby markets will provide additional income to the families.
