Pigs are wonderful providers.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One healthy sow can produce two or three litters of piglets every year\u2014with up to a dozen in each litter. Each of those piglets quickly grows to weigh as much as 200 pounds and fetches a hefty price at market. That means school supplies, medicines, and more for a family in need.<\/p>\n

For children like Johana, pictured in 2022 at age 9, pigs can open up a whole new future. After her dad abandoned their family, her mom, Nicolasa, received pigs through the Gift Catalog along with training that enabled her to start her own business.

She\u2019s committed to their futures and helping them succeed \u2014 and Johana, who helps her mom feed and care for their growing herd of pigs, dreams of following in her mom\u2019s footsteps as a pig farmer. \u201cI love working with the piggies!\u201d she says. \u201cWhen I grow up I want to be like my mommy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
