About Heifer International
In 1944, Heifer Internationals founder, Dan West, began outlining a
simple but groundbreaking plan to tackle hunger around the world. West,
a farmer from the Midwest and Church of the Brethren member, had
recently returned from feeding weary refugees during volunteer service
in the Spanish Civil War.
He had seen firsthand that giving people food was a short-term solution,
whereas providing them with animals offered a steady supply of
nutritious food for an entire family.His philosophy still inspires
Heifers work today. Partnering with farmers across a range of different
livestock and crops, we create unique solutions to local challenges.
Today, Heifer International has operations in 19 countries around the
world, working alongside local farmers, business owners and their
communities, as they mobilize and envision their futures. Together, we
build inclusive, resilient economies, so communities can develop
effective ways to end global hunger and poverty in a sustainable way.
To date, we have supported more than 42 million farming families across
Africa, Asia and the Americas and in the past five years alone, we have
worked alongside 2.7 million families to close the living income gap or
set them on a path to doing so. Between now and 2030, we will support an
additional 10 million people to reach a living income by scaling up our
signature programs. To achieve this, Heifer International relies on its
passionate, committed and highly skilled staff.
