Cow Horn Production Facility

A simple facility for the processing of a local and natural product, which is in demand, will
revolutionize the lives of the co-op LEAD partners with and the 45 AIDS widows who are its
members. In a country of high unemployment, this facility will employ 12 people, and funds
generated and passed to the co-op members will help them feed, clothe and educate their families.
It will also help provide for their medical needs as a result of many of them being HIV positive
because of their late husbands. By being able to provide for their families, they ensure that they
do not end up on the street and/or working in the sex industry.
