Economic Development

The pilot Goat Project selected five recipient families who were given two female goats each and a male goat for breeding. An agronomist provided vaccinations and two days of intensive training. In the second phase, each family will give back two goats to other church members to ensure that benefits spread within the community. 

As the success multiplies and protocols are ensured, ISA will purchase additional goats.

The ISA Seed Project is flourishing in its fourth growing season. The land is secured through partnerships with the Pignon Church, local landowners, and ISA. The crop planting, tending, and harvesting are overseen by a hired agronomist. Families are becoming healthier and developing financial resources for themselves and the church. 

ISA plans to increase the number of sustainable, shareable crops though additional land acquisition and seed selection.

ISA, in partnership with our strategic partners, Christian Disaster Response and Sonje Ayiti Organization, is developing a sustainable medical micro-business. Details will become available soon.
