Your support will help Heifer provide cows, goats, water buffalo and other livestock-- 28 animals in total-- in values-based community development projects in more than 50 countries, including the United States. Each animal provides benefits such as milk, eggs, wool and manure for fertilizer, providing families not only better and more secure sources of nutrition, but access to income to help secure education, health care and better housing. Heifer projects are environmentally sustainable, using trees, bees, organic compost, biogas and other techniques to ensure they have a lasting impact. Additionally, project participants agree to honor Heifer's Pass on the Gift cornerstone, giving the first-born female offspring of their animal as well as their own training to others, extending the benefits to entire communities in an ever-widening circle of hope.
Heifer's mission is to end hunger and poverty while caring for the Earth. Since 1944, Heifer International has provided livestock and environmentally sound agricultural training to improve the lives of those who struggle daily for reliable sources of food and income.
Thank You for Your Support!
