| Dear uulluumm,
Peace, health, education, opportunity – they're not your typical holiday gifts. In fact, many of us in the developed world forget the adversity our global neighbors endure each day.
We dream of the latest tech gadget; they dream of food to feed their family. This holiday, you can make their dreams come true.
Heifer recipients would tell you that joy comes in the package of a goat that gives milk daily, or a water buffalo that packs the power to tame the most unwieldy soil, or chickens that produce life-giving eggs. They would tell you that the gifts of hope you give make every day seem like Christmas morning.
This year, give the ultimate holiday gift - HOPE - by choosing Heifer.
Spotlighted below, you'll find updates from the field – stories of hope and renewal that are a result of generous support from our donors. You'll find fun giving options like Fund a Project that allows you to see the progress of the projects you support -- what a great gift for someone you love! And watch our friend Alton Brown share a 60-second video introduction to Heifer's mission. Pass it along to friends and family, too!
With so many options, won't you consider giving Heifer this year? Families are counting on your support.
Warmest wishes for a wonderful holiday, 
Ashley Michael
Heifer International

Alton's goat is one of many Heifer animals that are being passed from one struggling family to another.
