Dear Partner in Mission,

“If you offer your food to the hungry and satisfy the needs of the afflicted, then your light shall rise in the darkness and your gloom be like noonday.” ~Isaiah 58:10

Jo Luck, President and CEO, Heifer International

April is Pass on the Gift Month! Below you will find a variety of fundraising ideas that can inspire your church to Pass on the Gift.

Pass on the Gift is Heifer’s unique way of working with Communities to end hunger and poverty. Each family who receives a Heifer animal agrees to “Pass on the Gift” by sharing the offspring with others in their community; the impact of your gifts to Heifer goes on for generations.

Last year alone, Heifer’s work directly benefited 688,231 families. During April, we hope to raise additional funds to benefit even more families. Pass on your gift of knowledge of Heifer’s mission. Invite your church members to participate with you in gift giving opportunities through Heifer.

May the following ideas inspire you and your church family! After you complete your fundraiser, make a gift online or mail in this printable form with your donation. Also, feel free to share your fundraising accomplishments with Heifer! We want to hear about it!

"Those who are generous are blessed, for they share their bread with the poor.” ~Proverbs 22:9

Thank you for all you do to help end hunger and poverty!

Sincerely,

Jo Luck, President and CEO
