About this organization
Mission
We work to end hunger and poverty in partnership with local communities. Our programs support entrepreneurs around the world, creating lasting change from the ground up. It begins with a seed investment of livestock or agriculture, followed by mentorship to help project participants build a business, and ultimately to gain access to supply chains and markets. These families are able to earn a living income and continuously lift up their communities as they train the next generation of leaders. By supporting and training the world's farmers, ranchers, and female business owners, we're investing in a new breed of success.
About
International development: sustainability: Heifer provides gifts of food and income-producing livestock, as well as education and information about their care and feeding, to families and communities in need so that they may become self-reliant and establish sustainable livelihoods and enhanced access to food and income. Heifer works in partnership with local organizations and each family is expected to pass on the gift of livestock and knowledge through the gift of the first female offspring and training to another family in need, multiplying the gift and thus benefiting entire communities.
