This holiday season, as thoughts turn to the joyful spirit of giving, consider including Heifer International (HI), whose core principle is ending hunger and poverty around the world. HI’s strategic focus on empowering women multiplies these gifts many times over as they share the rewards of self-reliance with their children, families and communities.
To help further the good works of HI, we will again be offering a great alternative gift idea. Stop by the HI table in the gathering space after the service on Sunday, December 11th for information.
You can chose to honor your friends or family by “buying” symbolic animals, animal shares or even trees in their name and then select a Holiday card to to give to your recipient. Your donations will then be used by HI to help families by providing them with sustainable means of supporting themselves. If you’d like more information on HI please visit www.heifer.org or contact Lauri Rickard.
