Hail the efforts to "Heal Mother Earth"

Heifer's model of holistic development doesn't stop with ending hunger




Heifer’s work is focused on ending hunger, but we can’t end hunger without also caring for the earth. Poor agriculture is often related to soil erosion. Lack of water is often related to deforestation. And global warming is already hurting the world’s most poor and vulnerable through drought and changing ecosystems. If we are going to set families on a path of sustainable prosperity we must make sure that we work for a sustainable environment.



We've made the work of achieving environmental sustainability a part of everything we do at Heifer. We've built Heifer's headquarters to be a model sustainable building and we were honored with a Platinum LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) rating. In our projects we teach farmers around the world how to farm in environmentally friendly ways including organic farming methods. We also introduce appropriate technology such as biogas that saves forests from being harvested for firewood. In everything we make a healthier planet our goal.



Explore our work to care for the earth and end hunger, and join us in bringing together healthy lives and a healthy planet.
