MANY OF YOU HAVE
WRITTEN TO ME TO ASK HOW YOU CAN HELP! WELL, BESIDES ORDERING FROM
AMAZON THROUGH MY SITE, PLEASE HELP MY DAUGHTER RAISE MONEY FOR AN
"ARK" OF ANIMALS FROM HEIFER INTERNATIONAL! SHE HOPES TO
RAISE $5,000 BY SEPTEMBER 2006.
"Heifer works to end hunger and poverty, and
care for the earth by providing appropriate livestock, training
and related services to small-scale farmers and communities
worldwide. We care for the earth's natural resources through
training in livestock management, pasture improvement, soil
conservation, forestation and recast. Our cornerstone of 'passing on the gift,' assures that each participant in
the program becomes a donor and gives the animal's offspring to
another family in need. This concepts helps build community and
enhances dignity and participation in each project. The families
continually give to others ensuring self-sufficiency, one family
at a time. We have field offices in major program areas around the
world. We work at the grassroots level, sometimes with large
networks of local nongovernmental and grassroots organizations.
Our field staff is equipped with a variety of skills that help
project participants prepare for the challenges and problems they
encounter by providing training prior to receiving any animal
gift."
