Heifer International General Interests

View Heifer International General Endowments

Heifer International was founded on a simple belief: ending hunger begins with giving people the means to feed themselves. Since 1944, Heifer has helped more than 10.5 million hungry families in the United States and 125 other countries move toward self-reliance through the gift of food- and income-producing animals. This Interest is not restricted to a particular initiative or program. Instead, the funds are made available to areas where it is needed most so that Heifer’s life-changing work can continue in places all across the globe.
