    PROJECT DREAMER

Chicken Farm Project

Completed and sustaining

In collaboration with our local dreamer, Matt, Village Reach implemented a chicken farm project in Paraolon village, India. Aimed at alleviating economic hardships for six families, the initiative equips them with essential infrastructure such as transport cages, coops, water troughs, feed troughs, and vitamins for the chickens. This holistic approach ensures families can raise and sell chickens as a sustainable way to improve their finances.

Beyond financial benefits, the project also guarantees access to fresh eggs and meat for sustenance, enhancing their nutritional security and overall well-being. With the average daily income in the village at just $4.90 USD, running a mini chicken farm not only supplements their income by $3.60 USD per day but also provides hope in a place still ravaged by civil war and ongoing Christian persecution.

Mana Mart

Opened in April 2025 and serving 300+ families

In India, our second project, led by Matthew's vision, is Mana Mart, a village market that has been operating since April 2025. Villagers in this conflict-affected region once had to travel long distances through conflict zones for essential goods; now Mana Mart brings those goods close to home for more than 300 families while creating a sustainable, community-serving business that strengthens the village's long-term resilience.
