You can Save Someone's Life-- by Donating to Heifer International

 

Some people in developing countries receive only a single meal per day, and have always gone to bed hungry. Heifer International is a charity that donates animals to people in developing countries, providing them with adequate food and nourishment, as well as business opportunities. Millions of people have died of starvation and malnutrition--- but Heifer International has set 20.7 million families on a path towards prosperity by giving them animals. Heifer strives to end all hunger and poverty around the world--- and they need your help. Donate to Heifer-- and save someone's life. When you donate animals, it is not just a single family you are helping. When the animals reproduce, people can pass them on to their friends and relatives, or even their whole village. Passing on these animals have been known to last a family for nine generations.  Here is a link to Heifer's website:http://www.heifer.org/ending-hunger/index.html  Together, we can change the world.

Imagine you've always been hungry, every moment of your whole life. Sadly, this is what many people in developing countries are experiencing. However, with Heifer, their hunger can be ended. With your donation, we become one step closer to the goal of ending poverty. In addition, your donation of $60 will become a donation of $120 without your having to pay the extra money. This money funds Heifer's project to provide impoverished families in Cambodia with business opportunities and food. Raising money is easy and fun, too. A flock of 20 chicks, ducks, or geese costs only $20, making it a simple, yet helpful gift to raise money for. If you enjoy baking, you can make cookies or chocolate pretzel sticks, and sell them at your school to raise money, as I have done. We can end poverty-- but only with your help, so make a donation to Heifer.

  

In addition, you can donate a day's worth of clean water-- without having to do anything or give any money!! If you visit this site:http://tap.unicefusa.org/ on your smartphone, you can give a child a day's worth of water by leaving your phone(without picking it up) for only 10 minutes! Whenever you're busy, leave your phone open to the app, and it shall alert you once 10 minutes has passes-- and the water has been given. Billions of people do not have access to clean water, and most of those people die due to diseases such as cholera, transmitted by bacteria in the water.You can go for a while without your phone, right? People can't go without clean water, so put your phone to a better use. It's super easy to activate, too!
