Mission:

To work with communities to end hunger and poverty and to care for the earth.


Vision:

A world of communities living together in peace and equitably sharing the resources of a healthy planet.


Strategy:

To “pass on the gift.” As people share their animals’ offspring with others – along with their knowledge, resources, and skills – an expanding network of hope, dignity, and self-reliance is created that reaches around the globe.


History:

This simple idea of giving families a source of food rather than short-term relief caught on and has continued for over 60 years. Today, millions of families in 128 countries have been given the gifts of self-reliance and hope.
