UPDATES on our World Vision donations for 2008

15 10 2008
The early-morning bleating of a dairy goat is a happy sound for children in countries like Haiti and Malawi. They know it’s ready to be milked! A goat nourishes a family with fresh milk, cheese, and yogurt, and can offer a much-needed income boost by providing offspring and extra dairy products for sale at the market. It even provides fertilizer that can dramatically increase crop yields. A perennial favorite, both to give and receive!

We have raised enough money in loose change to provide 2 goats for children in need through World Vision!

One in five children in America lives below the federal poverty line. Your gift of $150 will deliver critical supplies such as brand-new clothing, diapers, blankets, household and personal care items, and toys to strengthen families and help provide children with a sense of hope and self-esteem. Thanks to corporate product donations, your gift will multiply 14 times to provide $2,100 worth of these basics!

The remainder of our collected change will go to this program!
