What is the chicken coop project?
Untether Life partners with Heart & Hope for Guatemala to help families establish sustainable chicken coops that provide eggs, nutrition, and opportunities for supplemental income.
The project is designed to create long-term economic stability rather than temporary assistance. We are also developing educational resources and business training that families can access throughout the year to help them successfully grow their co-ops.
What is sustainable missions?
Sustainable missions focuses on creating lasting impact rather than short-term solutions.
Instead of simply meeting immediate needs, sustainable missions works alongside local leaders to equip families and communities with tools, education, encouragement, and ongoing relationships that continue producing fruit long after a mission team returns home.
