Alleviating Hunger, Poverty and Environmental Degradation
Heifer Project International's grassroots approach has provided food and income producing animals and training to millions of resource poor families in 115 countries. Giving microcredit in the form of livestock promotes self-reliance, which builds self-esteem and helps families lift themselves out of poverty. At the heart of HPI's philosophy is the commitment families make to "pass on the gift" by sharing one or more of their animal's offspring with other families in need. Helping others ensures dignity and multiplies the benefits of the original gift from generation to generation.
