If so, you are well placed to help someone who might live in the world's poorest. If not, you are most likely still in a position to give help to someone in need! It's not easy this year to know how to help anyone. Disasters worldwide have led to widespread suffering and loss. But some causes are small, and forgotten. Heifer International arranges for farm animals to be delivered to needy people in many parts of the world these are often forgotten causes, individual cases of need. Take a look at this catalog and think about giving a gift which can provide a sustainable living and income for those less fortunate than you. What if you knew that a baby chick or duckling or dozens of other livestock and resource options from Heifer International's Gift Catalog, would change lives and bring hope and possibility to the people who need it? This year, give a gift that helps create a better world for your loved ones. Give an animal from Heifer's Gift Catalog.

O.I. Just going to add my 2 cents to your idea. We've given to this program for years through our church and it really makes a difference their lives. Not only do they give an animal to individual families, they are shown how to grow the animal's food, and they are encouraged to give an offspring of that animal to another family in the village.

I have seen the wonderful results in the Heifer project both in Mexico (with cows) and Guatemala (with chickens). It really makes a difference in the lives of the family who takes on the animals as well as the whole village. Nutrition improves as well as the economy. This is one of my favorite charities. Thanks for the link, OI!
