Out of gift ideas but not out of loved ones??

Check out Heifer International. cap_hill_latte introduced me to this great charity.

How it works:

• you buy an animal
• Heifer International gives the animal to a family in need
• they raise, feed, love, care for the animal and call him george
• they use the animal to feed and provide for their family
• they give away some offspring when they appear so others get the same benefit

Check out the catalogue! They're so cute. I gave my coworkers a flock of ducks and a flock of chicks.

Cheap but meaningful gifts! Suitable for those with animal allergies! What could go wrong?

Matt's sister bought us a goat last Christmas, which ended up with a family in Rwanda - lol

Was it from this specific charity? I didn't see any indication that I would find out where it went. If I do find out, that would be just awesome.

No, I believe it was from a different charity.
