The Heifer Global Village Experience

The realities of obtaining shelter, food, water and firewood. An existence in which nothing can be taken for granted.

View a powerful documentary on the Heifer Global Village

Heifer’s Global Village programs show participants that sometimes having a little means a lot. Whether spending one night or multiple days and nights in a village representing one of the regions in which Heifer works – Central and Eastern Europe, Africa, Asia/South Pacific, or the Americas (Latin America and North America) – participants will be taken through the daily struggles that impoverished people face.

In living the lives of others, you’ll find that something extraordinary happens. Your attitudes about individual action, community cooperation, and sustainable solutions for global hunger, poverty and the environment will be transformed. Your understanding of the world – and your place in it – will change forever.
