Features

  • In a low-income neighborhood in Gainesville, Florida a small group of at-risk teens and school children are headed in a new, positive direction as they work in community gardens, learning about food, nutrition, business, and helping others. “I think more about vegetables now and all the hard work and sweat and hours and hours of labor it takes to put food on our plate," said one.
  • Heifer Project International received a matching grant of $1.5 million for Uganda. Donations to the project will be quadrupled, providing a total of $2 million for Ugandan families.
