IGF Sustainable Farm Project

Currently, a majority of IGF services are funded by ongoing donations through international child sponsorship and donations. Our dream is to become 100% self-sustainable, where we empower the local community to provide these services for the children directly. This not only eliminates dependance on others, but restores dignity and freedom to the community.

Our goal is to establish an irrigation system that will assist with income generation, as it enables higher value crops such as tomatoes and onions to be grown.  The increased profits from this type of farming can be used to help fund the multiple IGF children’s services.

Financial Outcomes:

It is expected the project will generate AUD$160,545 profit over the first 12 months, and increasing in subsequent years.

TOTAL GROSS REVENUE
AUD$ 296,400
TOTAL NET PROFIT
AUD$ 160,545

After initial installation costs are expended the income generation of the project excels. The net profit in the second year is estimated at AUD$206,200.

Beneficiary Outcomes:

The income generated from this project will be used for:

• Operational running costs for the 4 IGF Primary Schools and the Vocational College (4,500 students), including; teacher salaries, text
books, clean water access for the local community and school feeding.

• Children’s medical clinics including; milk for babies in the children’s
hospital, treatment for malaria, immunisation.

• Vocational training resources inlcuding; tools and materials for sewing,
carpentry and building.Currently, a majority of IGF services are funded by ongoing donations through international child sponsorship and donations.
