Heifer International - A Small Gift That Makes a Huge Impact - Thank You for Making a Difference

Dear Heifer Friend,

This year Heifer International is participating in the first ever Giving Tuesday, a day dedicated to showing that holiday shopping can be both about giving and giving back!

Give Heifer gifts on this Giving Tuesday and begin your transition into the season of giving!

Our holiday catalog is full of great gifts that will warm the hearts of your gift recipients and also transform the lives of families living in poverty.

By buying a gift from Heifer this Giving Tuesday, you can change the life of a family in need while honoring your friends and family members. Heifer's Cornerstone of Passing on the Gift means that your holiday gift will continue to help even more families.

Use our savings calculator to determine your impact. It's a fun way to see how your Black Friday savings can turn into a lifetime of hope for a family.

After you give, you can choose a personalized card for your gift recipient. With four convenient options, sharing your Heifer holiday gift is fun and easy.

Celebrate Giving Tuesday with us and provide livestock that transforms lives.

Sincerely,

Pierre Ferrari
President and CEO

We had a great time at Barbara Klingslover's new book ("Flight Behavior") release event last night. We passed out an excerpt of an article she wrote that appeared in one of the World Arks. It's always fun to "preach to the choir" and her following seems to be very aware of Heifer's work to end hunger and poverty while caring the earth.
