Gifts That Make The World A Better Place (NAPSA)—Thegifts you give can help make the world a better place. That’s the idea behind a partnership between Dr.Hauschka Skin Care, Inc. and Heifer International. What does a high-end, natural skin care company haveto do with a nonprofit organization that donates cows and other livestock to impoverished communities throughout the world? Quite a lot, it turns out. Both organizations are deeply invested in agriculture and share a holistic approach to health and well-being. In its fight against hunger, Heifer International has been donating farm animals and earth-friendly agricultural training to impoverished families and communities since 1944. The gift of giving continues to multiply as families pass on their animals’ offspring to neighbors. Heifer has helped millions of people in more than 125 countries, including the U.S., by enabling poor families to feed their children, send them to school, provide housing and health care and build strong, selfreliant communities. Dr.Hauschka also sees the importance of sustainable agriculture and holistic care.
