Heifer International

Okay, I know my posts are usually much more lighthearted but I wanted to share this. Richard and I have actually officially decided to give to Heifer International and made our first donation. This program has always appealed to me much more than more conventional charities because they are not...Instead of sending money each month to "support a child" they advocate teaching the people to support themselves. I find that exciting. Giving people a chance at a better life and at the same time allowing them to pass that chance on to others.
I missed the April Pass it on month but since everybody knows I'm a bit behind...I'll just "pass it on" in May!
