Big Love Farm Multiplier – Every Cow, Every Child, Every Community

At Big Love, we are here to make a meaningful impact. We believe every child, family, and community should have the chance to flourish, free from poverty, exploitation, and limitation.

To help make this possible, we started the Big Love Farm in Romania. It is a working dairy farm where cows produce milk that is sold locally. Every penny of profit is reinvested into children’s centres and community projects. The farm also provides jobs, skills, and sustainability for local families.

Because the farm produces income every day, it does not just provide short term help, it multiplies. That is why we call it the Big Love Farm Multiplier.

How it works


• Each cow on the Big Love Farm produces milk that is sold locally in Romania.
• All profits are reinvested into our children’s centres, resourcing meals, education, and safe spaces for over 100 children every single day.
• The farm also creates local jobs, develops skills, and models self sustainability for the wider community.

Because the farm generates ongoing income, every pound invested does not just make a one off difference, it multiplies.


• A gift of £10 grows into £60 over time through dairy sales.
• A gift of £100 helps us resource children for weeks.
• Sponsoring a cow (£2,000) can generate over £250 each month, with around £85 profit going directly into children’s centres and UK projects.

This is what we call the Big Love multiplier.

Building for the future

The farm is not just growing in herd size, it is growing in capability. Thanks to generous supporters, we have been able to:


• Build a new milking parlour, capable of milking ten cows in 12 minutes.
• Purchase a butter machine, expanding what we can sell locally.
• Invest in feed storage and silage, keeping the herd healthy all year round.
• Employ two full time local workers, providing steady incomes for families.
• Provide seasonal work for teenagers, giving them a way to earn, learn, and grow in dignity.

Every step forward is about resourcing more children and families facing hardship.

What your giving makes possible

Because of the multiplier, your generosity has impact across both overseas and UK projects.


• 800+ children supported weekly overseas, with daily meals, educational activities, and safe spaces.
• Over 100 children resourced daily through the farm’s dairy production.
• 40+ women in the UK supported through the Hope Course, walking out of addiction into freedom.
• 35+ lads mentored weekly in Essex through football, learning respect, resilience, and belonging.
• 500+ football kits distributed, giving children dignity and joy.
• 300+ food hampers shared with families in need during crises.
• 8 teachers and facilitators resourced overseas, enabling centres to thrive.
• 23 dairy cows purchased through a single donation, transforming the farm’s sustainability.

In the UK, your support helps us run:


• The Hope Course, a six week self esteem course for adults overcoming addiction, now adapted for Year 5 and 6 pupils.
• Football mentoring, reaching dozens of lads each week with encouragement, skills, and belonging.
• The Music and Wellbeing Course, helping primary children discover creativity, confidence, and joy.

Stories of change

Behind every number are real lives, strengthened because someone gave.


• In Romania, a boy who once missed school regularly now attends every day because he knows he will be resourced with meals and supported with his homework.
• In the UK, a woman who joined the Hope Course said: “I never thought I had value, now I know I do.” Her life has turned a corner, and her family see the difference.
• In Chelmsford, boys who were at risk of exclusion now play football each week, learning discipline, teamwork, and respect while receiving mentoring.
• On mission trips, UK teenagers who struggled with confidence or direction have worked on the farm, cared for cows, and supported children. Many return with fresh purpose and vision for their lives.

These are not statistics. They are stories of lives resourced and strengthened through kindness.

Why a cow?

A cow represents stability and multiplication.


• A single cow produces enough milk to resource hundreds of children each month.
• The profits from the Big Love Farm do not just provide food and education overseas, they also release us to expand programmes here in the UK.
• Every cow increases our ability to say “yes” to more children, more families, and more communities.

The Big Love Farm is more than fields and fences. It is a picture of sustainability, dignity, and hope.

Where every penny goes

Transparency is one of our core values.


• Every penny from the farm goes back into children’s centres and community projects.
• Donations are not lost in overheads, they become safe spaces, mentors, and opportunities.
• With the multiplier, the impact of your giving grows far beyond the first pound you give.

⸻

How you can step in

We cannot do this without people who believe in a better future for children and families. You can:


• Give a one off gift, no amount is too small to multiply.
• Commit monthly, sustained giving means sustained impact.
• Fund a cow (£2,000), directly growing the herd and multiplying impact for years to come.

Every gift becomes part of the multiplier.

A humble invitation

We know we cannot solve every problem, but we can faithfully serve those in front of us, children who need resourcing, families who need stability, and communities who need hope.

With your help, we can do more. Together, we can support more children, run more courses, employ more local workers, and see communities in the UK and overseas strengthened.

Big Love has always been about people. About kindness, compassion, honesty, dignity, and faith in action.

The Big Love Farm gives us a way to keep saying “yes” to children, families, and communities.

Will you join us in multiplying hope?
