Piggy Plummet: Get Ready for Some Flying Fun!

The Piggy Plummet is sending plastic pigs flying to fund a Community Empowerment Center and Demonstration Farm in Uganda. For every $25 you donate, you’ll get a plastic pig to be dropped from a basket crane over an open area. If your pig lands in the hole, you’ll get a portion of the funds raised! You can tune into the Piggy Plummet from the comfort of your own home on Friday, January 31, 2025.

How The Piggy Plummet Works

For every pig you purchase, you’ll receive a unique number that’s written on your little rubber piggy. On the day of the event, we’ll hoist all the pigs high in the air with a basket crane. Suspended above an open area with a single target hole in the center, the basket crane will release hundreds of pigs in an epic drop! The pig that lands closest to the target will be our lucky winner. For every 200 pigs sold, the grand prize increases by $1,000!

Will your pig be the one to hit the jackpot?

We’re aiming to sell 800 pigs, raising over $20,000!

Here’s what your donation will get you:
  • 1 pig for $25
  • 5 pigs for $100
  • 10 pigs for $200
  • 40 pigs for $500 (Best Deal!)
Our goal is ambitious: to build a Community Empowerment Center and Demonstration Farm in south-central Uganda that will offer classes, vocational training, community gathering spaces, and more. This facility will impact the lives of over 10,000 Ugandans. But if pigs can fly, then anything is possible! Help us to transform lives in Uganda by purchasing a plastic pig!
