Big Love, Big Impact.

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

At Big Love, we’re 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.

That’s why we launched the Big Love Farm Multiplier.

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

Because the farm generates ongoing income, every pound invested doesn’t just make a one-off difference — it multiplies.
• A gift of £10 becomes £60 over time through dairy sales.
• A gift of £100 provides enough support to feed 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.

We call it the Big Love multiplier.

Building for the future

The farm isn’t just growing in herd size, it’s growing in capability. Thanks to generous supporters, we’ve been able to:
• Build a new milking parlour capable of milking ten cows in 12 minutes, increasing production massively.
• Purchase a butter machine, expanding what we can sell locally and boosting profits.
• Invest in feed storage and silage, ensuring healthy cattle and consistent output year-round.
• Employ two full-time workers from the local community, providing steady incomes for families.
• Provide seasonal work for teenagers, giving them a way to earn, learn, and grow in dignity.

Every improvement has one goal: to support more children and families living in hardship.

What your giving makes possible

Because of the multiplier, your generosity has an impact across both overseas and UK projects.
• 800+ children supported weekly overseas, with daily meals, educational activities, and safe spaces.
• Over 100 children fed every single day through the farm’s dairy production.
• 40+ women supported in the UK 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 identity, dignity, and joy.
• 300+ food hampers shared with families in need during crises.
• 8 teachers and facilitators resourced overseas, enabling children’s centres to thrive.
• 23 dairy cows purchased through a single generous donation, transforming the farm and expanding 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 & 6 pupils.
• Our Football mentoring programme, reaching dozens of lads each week with mentoring, encouragement, and belonging.
• Our Music and Wellbeing Course, helping primary children discover creativity, confidence, and joy.

Stories of change

Behind every number are real lives, transformed because someone gave.
• In Romania, a boy who once missed school regularly now attends every day because he knows there will be a hot meal and help with homework waiting for him.
• 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 are seeing the change.
• In Chelmsford, boys who were once at risk of exclusion from school now play football each week, learning discipline, teamwork, and respect while receiving mentoring support.
• On mission trips, UK teenagers who have struggled with self-worth or direction have worked on the farm, cared for cows, and served children. Many return home with fresh purpose and vision for their lives.

These aren’t statistics. They’re lives changed through kindness.

Why a cow?

It might sound unusual, but a cow represents stability and multiplication.
• A single cow produces enough milk to support hundreds of children each month.
• The profits from the Big Love Farm don’t just cover food and education overseas — they also release us to expand life-changing work 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’s a beacon of 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 aren’t lost in overheads — they become meals, 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 can’t do this without people who believe in a better future for children. 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 can’t solve every problem, but we can faithfully serve those in front of us — children who need safety, families who need stability, communities who need hope.

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

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?
