Llamas are Cool...
And they help some families survive. Have you heard of www.heifer.org? It has been around for a while but I just recently came across it again. It is an organization that strives to end world hunger and poverty by helping build sustainable communities. It does this by offering different animals for sale. For example, you can buy a family in another country a sheep in the name of your mother or your best friend. Many communities depend on sheep for their wool. What about a buying a flock of geese for a family in need of eggs? There are several animals and price ranges from which to choose. You can make these donations in someone's name and get a card that explains the gift. What a great gift for someone who has everything! I think this is a really great idea. Sometimes, you just don't need anymore stuff, so instead you can help someone who really needs it.
