Team Heifer - An online fundraising resource that allows groups to team up or compete to raise funds through a secure, personalized Team Heifer page.

Read to Feed® – Read to Feed® is a reading incentive fundraiser that will foster in your children a love for reading and a passion to help others while giving your children a way to raise funds for Heifer.

Heifer Challenge – Heifer Challenge is a fun, rewarding way to make a difference in the world. Participants, individually or as a group, select a challenge, like daring their principal to dress in a cow suit all day, decide how much it is worth, find sponsors, complete the mission and donate the funds for Heifer.

Pass on the Gift Resources - Each April, Heifer International celebrates Pass on the Gift Month. Join us in this celebration by hosting a special fundraising event in April. Our free Pass on the Gift resources show your congregation what Pass on the Gift means, provides ideas for sermons and events to host.

Living Gift Market Guide - The Living Gift Market Guide walks you through the process of planning and hosting a Living Gift Market which "sells" food- and income-producing animals like bees, chicks, goats and heifers. Shoppers honor a friend or loved one by giving in his or her name, while at the same time empowering an impoverished family by providing an animal and training in its care. Your Living Gift Market can be as big or as small as you wish. Download Heifer's Living Gift Market Guide.
