Heifer : Passing on the Gift
If you give what can be taken, you are not really giving. Take what you are given, not what you want to be given. Give what cannot be taken. — Idries Shah

Good News of the Day:
Heifer International is an organization that works in over 100 countries to provide people with animals that continue to nourish impoverished families, rather than short-term relief. The charity’s goal is to provide the livestock to needy families so they can produce a product, such as milk or silk, and support themselves. Heifer’s signature value, “Passing on the Gift,” requires recipients to share offspring of their animals along with resources and skills with other farmers, creating an ever-expanding network of hope. Their approach also includes environmental and sustainable development, improved animal well-being, and disaster rehabilitation. Since its inception in 1944, close to 8 million families have benefited from Heifer’s services.
