Animals make the best gifts, goats are the best animals and all your holiday shopping problems are solved!

After 75 years providing charitable gifts of the four-footed variety, Heifer International has the holiday routine down pat. Where else can you find a quick and easy gift that’s also deeply meaningful and requires no gift wrapping? Where else can you bless family and friends with donkeys and pigs without also sticking them with stalls to muck and slop to haul?

There’s a reason so many other organizations are following Heifer International’s example by asking donors to send animals to families in need. The reason is that Heifer has been honing its model since our first shipment of cows to Puerto Rico in 1944, and the model works. Decades of experience make Heifer the best charity through which to send animal donations.

Goats are great for milk, cheese and entertainment.
