Gift-Help Card – Layer chick
Soon it is Christmas again (true story, check your calendar!) and you probably still don’t have any idea what to gift your loved ones to let them know that you care for them … . Here an idea: Get a beautiful, funny and personalized Mulimuli Gift-Help Card for them. You'll hit two birds with one stone. On the one hand, you’ll enable us to get one more healthy chicken for our community farm. On the other hand, you’ll have something for Christmas that will certainly gift somebody a lovely smile and a warm-hearted feeling.

Gift-Help Card – Parent fish
Like the Layer Chicken Gift-Help card, but with fishes (somehow cooler, isn’t it?). Contributing for this reward will enable us to get one more broodstock fish (Mamas and Papas) for our farm and you’ll get a pretty funny gift card. To be transparent: 25CHF is about what we pay to keep one «pair» of broodstock fish (2 females, 1 male; yeah, fish are not monogamous!) for one year. During one year the two females are then able to «produce» over one thousand small baby fish each, which we can sell to local farmers at a good price so they can produce healthy protein for their community and earn an income. If this just got you interested in fish farming you might want to check out our reward for a one-week fish farming course at our urban farm!

Gift-Help Card – Mbuzi
Mbuzi (pronounced «Mbuusi») is Kiswahili for «goat». If you pledge for this reward you will get a gift card for a small baby goat (and you can also name her/him if you want). There isn’t really a cost equivalency between your pledge and the cost for the goat here to be honest. The goats mostly roam freely on our compound (there are quite some bushes around). We also let the goats feed their babies with the milk and don’t steel any. The main costs arise during the dry period when we have to feed them with supplementary feeds.
Diseases are another challenge.

Hallo Zusammen. Mein Name ist Teddy. Ich komme ursprünglich aus Morogoro, Tansania.
Ich liebe es, neue Leute kennenzulernen und zusammenzubringen - vor allem auch Menschen aus verschiedenen Kulturen. Aus dieser Leidenschaft entstand auch die Idee eines interkulturellen Gemeinschaftszentrums. Zusammen mit engagierten Freunden habe ich daher das Gemeinschaftsprojekt Mulimuli ins Leben gerufen.
