Ducks

Give ducks to a hungry family today.

With the gift of ducks, families will benefit from hundreds of large, protein-rich eggs all year long. Extra duck eggs and hatched ducklings can be sold to buy necessities like medicine or to help send a child to school.

A duck also offers valuable down feathers, well-known for their thermal insulation and padding — great for use in bedding materials and warm clothing, or to earn much-needed income. Ducks even produce fertilizer that can dramatically increase crop yields!

In countries like the Philippines, where sudden, dramatic rainfall is becoming more common, chicken farmers are at risk of losing their livelihoods when their birds drown in floodwaters. That’s why World Vision has helped them switch to duck farming. After all, a flood that could be deadly for a chicken is just a bird bath for a duck.

Monthly giving: the simple way to make your donations do more. Give to the Animal & Agriculture Fund.

Monthly giving is the most effective way to help the children and families who need it most. It lowers costs, which means more of your gift helps kids! Plus, your donations will be delivering the right solution at just the right time. And while your gifts are changing lives, you’ll get to see the power of your generosity through quarterly updates and World Vision magazine.
