To date, Creative Change has raised $840 for Heifer International! With these funds, we are purchasing one heifer, one llama, one goat, one hive of bees, and two flocks of chick! Wow, wow, wow! Fun facts about these animals:
Heifers can produce a calf every year and four gallons of milk a day.
Llamas supply wool and carry small loads.
Goats can produce four quarts of milk a day and give brth to twins or triplets.
Honey bees supply beeswax and honey, while pollination improves crop yields.
Chickens supply up to 200 eggs a year.
I sent our donation in today!
Our upcoming projects include child sponsorship through World Vision (www.worldvision.org) and purchasing bed nets to prevent malaria through Malaria No More (www.malarianomore.org). Stay tuned for more details!
Remember you can always order cards via mail - I love it when our cards travel from Bellingham to different parts of the country!
AND we recently became an officially incorporated non-profit with the state of Washington (thanks to help from our taxman Pat!). Exciting, exciting!!!
