A Ugandan family got a goat, which allowed them to save enough to send their daughter to school. She proceeded to earn scholarships and pursue her education, and has become the first person from her village to obtain a university degree. She's now doing a master's degree and will eventually return to Africa to pass on the gift yet again.
