Six (6) goats have been purchased by Nativity Faith Formation in
support of the Heifer International Program. Thank you to all who
participated in this Lenten project with our Faith Formation Sixth Graders.
The gift of a dairy goat represents a lasting, meaningful way for you to help a little boy or girl on the other side of the world.
Goats can thrive in extreme climates and on poor, dry land by eating
grass and leaves. The gift of a dairy goat can supply a family with
up to several quarts of nutritious milk a day – a ton on milk a year.
Extramilk can be sold or used to make cheese, butter or yogurt. Families learn to use goat manure to fertilize gardens.
Goats often have two or three kids a year making it easy for Heifer
recipients to pass on the gift of a goat to another family in need.
This great investment allows our partners to lift themselves out of
poverty by starting small dairies that earn money for food, health
care and education.
