Heifer International

One of Ace's more interesting stops at the recent 2009 Kansas State Fair was the booth of Heifer International in the Birthing Center. Heifer International runs a program by which people can help purchase an animal for a family in an under-developed country, thus aiding them to become self-sufficient.

They also do a lot of other cool stuff, like stressing gender equality, sustainable agriculture and training people to take care of those critters - some offspring of which are passed to others. Not a bad deal, me thinks.

Ace helped buy a trio of bunnies for someone. Maybe they'll get amorous with some antelope and he'll have some relatives to visit.
