"We have designed a trip that will be inspirational and transformative, not only for the vibrant and historic culture of Cuzco, but also for the opportunity to work alongside and break bread with a Heifer International family. The winner will participate first hand in one of Heifer International’s projects in Peru that, like all of the organization’s global initiatives, aims to significantly improve the livelihoods of families and communities,” said Marleen New, Director of Corporate and Foundation Relations for Heifer International.

The trip includes an introduction to Heifer International's alpaca projects in the Andean region near Cuzco. The winner will participate in and learn about all facets of alpaca care including feeding; tending to pasture; and the business associated with the sale of their exceptionally soft wool to make blankets, ponchos, hats and carpets, which ensures a sustainable way of life for struggling families.

For Heifer International, development is about creating a world free of hunger and poverty, where families in need thrive under their own energy and entrepreneurial spirit—on their own terms.
