Transforming lives


At Heifer we are committed to a world with enough food, healthy nutrition and a living income for everyone. For centuries, farming has been the foundation for thriving civilizations and societies. The same holds true today and tomorrow. Yet 800 million people still live in extreme poverty, mostly in rural areas as small-scale farmers. Heifer works with these vulnerable communities to go from struggling to self-sustaining livelihoods. Since 2018, O'NEST supports Heifer in realizing this mission.

CLOSING THE GAP

By 2020 we will have helped 4 million families leaving hunger and poverty behind for good and achieve a living income which means they have enough income and means to educate their children, consume nutritious food every day, have proper housing, access to water, hygiene and all other essential resources needed for resilient, self-reliant lives.

Our approach is all about fostering autonomy and entrepreneurship in sustainable agribusiness. We work directly with African smallholder farmers, their families and communities and empower them with the needed skills and training on e.g. sustainable agriculture techniques and entrepreneurship as well as the necessary start-up resources such as crop seeds and livestock.

PASSING ON THE GIFT

We have all needed a helping hand in our life. Families that receive resources from Heifer —such as livestock, seeds or training—pass on these ‘gifts’ to other families within their community. They train, set up proper facilities, and share knowledge and resources with other families in their community. We call this Passing on the Gift. Over the course of a few years, the effects of one gift consequently are multiplied across multiple families, bringing the community closer and strengthening their self-reliance.

O’Nest And Heifer

A partnership that continues to Pass on the Gift… With their customers' support, O’Nest is excited to reach out and support Heifer in its mission to end hunger and poverty. For every bag of chips sold, a donation is made to Heifer. Heifer invests this into training and support of African smallholder farmers and their families in countries like Ethiopia. Read more about our project in Ethiopia.



Want to help?

Heifer and O’Nest need your help to combat hunger and poverty around the world. Help families in need, who then pass on their gifts to even more families, improving the livelihood of entire communities. With for example the gift of a heifer, goat, flock of chicks, you help strengthen communities and their move toward self-reliance.
