Chicken coop and vegetables

Mrs. Loide – A Life of Simplicity and Strength
In the small village of Elouna, somewhere above Etosha National Park, there’s a joyful clucking – and it’s not just the chickens. Meme Loide, a strong-hearted woman of grit and grace, has brought her chicken coop to life.

The first round of chicks? Well… they made a delicious appearance as roast chicken on dinner plates.
But now – jackpot! She’s found the right breed for laying eggs. And Meme Loide? She’s up early, swinging her feed bucket, counting her eggs with pride.

A small step for a hen – a big step for Meme Loide’s independence.
Abandoned women must rely on their own strength to survive. The government pension of N$1600 (around CHF 70) helps – but it barely covers the basics.
