Heifer International
Sunday School Outreach Project May 2009 - Heifer International
During May of 2009, our Sunday School is doing an outreach project. We chose The Heifer Project. During the entire month of May, our Sunday School will collect money to help poverty-striken families by purchasing animals for them. Animals provide a multitude of benefits including food (i.e. eggs from chickens, milk from cows and goats, honey from bees, etc.), income from animal related products (they can sell their extra eggs, milk, honey, etc.), manure for growing crops, and the means to feed and support their families. Each family that is given an animal also gets training on caring for that animal and is required to give at least one of their offspring back into the project to benefit another family. The Heifer Project offers the following options for purchase:
You may opt to purchase specific animals or offer a general donation. All general donations will be added up at the end of the month to purchase the most expensive animal that the money will buy. Heifer International is trying to end World Hunger one family at a time. We appreciate your support of this project. Further information can be found at www.heifer.org.
