Thirteen families, freed from bonded labor, have discovered sustainable financial freedom in their community. 

These families were previously enslaved in brick kilns, but since being freed, they have struggled to break the cycle of poverty. The local Justice Hub team spent time with these survivors to understand their needs and what type of business would be a good investment for their community. The team proposed a commercial duck farming business, which requires a low capital investment but offers high returns due to seasonal demands.

The community of survivors was excited to take on this venture. Before launching the business, they received training in duck farming and business management. The Justice Hub team crafted business and financial plans tailored individually to each family. Some families used their clay pot savings as capital and others utilized the government compensation they received after their rescue. 

Encouraging reports have already begun to come in. One family reported that after starting with just two ducks, the business has grown to fifteen ducks. Another family diversified their investment to include a goat and now has a range of products to sell. 

The Justice Hub team has been inspired by this community’s commitment to self-sustainability.

These survivors have cultivated the determination and confidence to secure their own livelihoods and enjoy the fruits of their restoration.
