HEIFER PROJECT
INTERNATIONAL
Since 1944 Heifer Project
International (HPI) has been providing hungry families with sources of
food rather than short term relief. HPI is an ecumenical, non-profit
organization which works in partnership to alleviate hunger and
poverty by helping families become self-sufficient for food and income
on a sustainable basis. HPI projects include proving animals,
training and technical assistance to low-income families in 40
countries and 12 states. HPI provides 18 different kinds of food and
income-producing animals, as well as intensive training in animal
husbandry, community development, and ecologically sound and
environmentally sustainable agricultural methods.
Our church supports Heifer Project
International with financial support through the Outreach budget and
also through the Festival of Sharing. For more information on Heifer
