A gift from Heifer International is meaningful for everyone involved. Your friends, family and colleagues alike will be honored to receive gifts from Heifer, whether they’re goat lovers or tree huggers. You’ll know that you’ve not only done something special for your recipient, but also for our global community. And the ultimate recipient – the Heifer project participant family – will reap the benefits of your gift for years to come. Best yet, that gift will keep on giving as our participants Pass on the Gift to another family in the community.

Give to Heifer today to support the real giving season’s opening day.

Our Cyber Monday Recommendation: Pigs!

Pigs are the perfect, most interest-bearing “living savings accounts” for struggling families. They provide a valuable source of protein, income from selling offspring, and manure to nourish crops and soil.

Did you know?

  • Pigs can have up to 16 piglets in a litter.
  • Piglets usually double their birth weight in just one week.
  • Pigs thrive on crop and garden waste, saving fodder land and income.

Shop Heifer this Cyber Monday and give someone the pig they’ve always wanted!
