　　About Heifer International

　　In 1944, Heifer Internationals founder, Dan West, began outlining asimple but groundbreaking plan to tackle hunger around the world. West,a farmer from the Midwest and Church of the Brethren member, hadrecently returned from feeding weary refugees during volunteer servicein the Spanish Civil War.

　　Today, Heifer International has operations in 21 countries around theworld, working alongside local farmers, business owners and theircommunities, as they mobilize and envision their futures. Together, webuild inclusive, resilient economies, so communities can developeffective ways to end global hunger and poverty in a sustainable way.

Between now and 2030, we will support anadditional 10 million people to reach a living income by scaling up oursignature programs. To achieve this, Heifer International relies on itspassionate, committed and highly skilled staff.
