Greetings Michelle, actually we do have programs in the USA. Heifer USA works with small-scale farmers to help them transform their communities. Farms become strong, community-focused businesses that support their families and spark economic growth in rural America. You can see more at www.heifer.org/usa. Thank you.

As Joel Salatin says. If you want to decrease poverty, get people involved in animal husbandry. That's why i bought a farm! Read his book "Folks This Aint Normal", not a reader? Get it on audible!

You guys owe one to Seth McFarlane! It was mentioned on last week's episode of American Dad that the character Hayley donates a goat to a family in a poor country every year. I was like, "YOU CAN DO THAT?!" And then I Googled it . . . I'll be donating on my next paycheck! :^D

Yea also goats and cattle need alot of care. I have 30 head of goat in Wv and I constantly have to de worm them and buy them hay for the winter time and that's alot of money. How do these people in 3rd world country's afford this? I bet the poor animals just die.

Send them grain and show them how to raise their own food. Once the cow, pig or goat dies they got nothing.

@Ben Jones That's tough when you are sending them ONE animal of either sex. Do they have immaculate conception? What's stopping these starving people from slaughtering the animal and then eating it. Is it sent with instructions?

@Ben Jones Is this actually done or are you just making it up? You ship a pregnant animal? This all seems a lot of work to get nothing done. Join the Peace Corp and help them dig wells, or irrigate their fields. This is white people thinking they are continuing the white man's burden.

Sorry for the long awaited comment on this. I was born and raised on the island of Dominica. Growing up we never had to feed our animals any special hay or feed, we just took them out to pasture and they eat. We also didn’t have any vet bills, I didn’t know what a vet was until I moved to America, and somehow our animals and people live very long and prosperous lives. All these questions about feed and vet is a thing for more polluted societies. In smaller more fertile country the animals eat as God intended, free of pesticide. Giving a person an animal is a great gift and will encourage others to do so as I have.

So, that's your excuse for doing nothing? Since you think Heifer is doing it wrong, what are you doing that is doing it right?
