Heifer

$310.00

An udder-ly great gift! A heifer is a young cow that will grow up into a source of milk, cheese, fertiliser, ploughing power and more cows! When the first female calf is weaned, it is given to another poor household to share the benefits across the whole community.

Gifts which support earning a living

Imagine not knowing where your next meal was coming from, or if it was coming at all! For many poor and marginalised people, this is a reality faced every day. Helping people develop a livelihood is a crucial step in their development, as it empowers them to break out of the poverty cycle and begin to work towards building a future.

These gifts help to provide people with the gift of security - security of work, income and food. The gifts fund projects and programs that come under our Livelihoods and Food Security banner. This means that they all help people and communities learn new skills to set up their own businesses, or be more effective at growing food to sell, and to eat.
