The Chilli Farm
A vocational class at a child development centre in Indonesia has given Compassion assisted children the opportunity to learn farming skills by planting chilli in a field. Like the best chilli, the idea was too hot to contain, and it has spread beyond the class and into the community.
For the month of Apr-Jun 2017, Ozbabybargain has donated $195 to the income generation project. Thank you everyone for your support!

Income Generation
Empower young people and their families to be economically self-supporting.
Three billion people live on less than US$2.50 per day (World Bank).
The opportunity to learn a skill or understand how to run a business is an important key to breaking the cycle of poverty. However income generating activities are not just about providing finance for a family. They are about empowerment—teaching a young adult that they can use their God-given skills to plan for their future. It is coming alongside a family and teaching them to break the cycle of poverty for the following generations.
Through generous supporters, Compassion intervenes on several fronts:
- Providing business and finance training opportunities for caregivers and young people
- Identifying caregivers who would most benefit from income-generation help
- Facilitating income generating workshops such as credit management, basic business and accounting
- Linking caregivers with other micro-enterprise credit institutions
You can support young people and their caregivers to be empowered through income generation training and equipped with important skills for life.
