At the Marita Foundation, our mantra is simple: Empowering Ugandan Women, One Piglet at a Time. As a registered non-profit organization and an initiative by Marita Travel & Tours Ltd, our heart and soul lies in empowering the hardworking women of rural Uganda. These women, often the backbone of their communities, strive day in and day out to provide for their families, ensuring food, clothing, and education are within reach.

In a nation where a staggering 80% of its populace lives in rural terrains, subsistence farming isn't just an occupation; it's a way of life. The women here, the primary caretakers and providers, voiced a need, and we listened. Enter our newest endeavor: The Piglet Project.

Why piglets? These creatures are not only easy to nurture but also possess the potential for rapid growth and high yield, growing from a mere 1.5kg at birth to a whopping 90kg in just 170 days. What's even more impressive is their ability to produce up to 20 piglets annually. For families with limited landholdings, pig rearing emerges as the ideal economic venture.

Our calculations are ambitious yet achievable. With the aim of raising $50,000, we intend to provide 50 male piglets and over 1,150 female piglets to these resilient women. The impact? A sustainable source of income and food for countless families, driving them away from the clutches of poverty and towards a brighter, more prosperous future.

But our vision extends beyond just economic empowerment. By bolstering these communities financially, we pave the way for improved health by enhancing their access to crucial healthcare services, including disease prevention and treatment. In essence, we're not just offering them piglets; we're offering hope, health, and a hand in their journey to self-sufficiency.

The passion and expertise of our Founder and CEO, Neust Aheisibwe, are the bedrock upon which the Marita Foundation stands. And a significant portion of the proceeds from Marita Travel & Tours goes directly into fueling our mission, ensuring every dollar is utilized to its fullest potential in uplifting rural communities in Uganda.

But, as they say, it takes a village. We call upon you, our esteemed readers and well-wishers, to join hands with us in this noble cause. Donate now, and together, let's transform lives, one piglet at a time.
