Chores for Change

Are you or your children looking for a way to get involved with Heifer International? One simple way to help out is to take on a "Chores for Change" project. Offer window washing, painting, yard work, etc. to family members or neighbors and ask that they make a donation to Heifer International in return for your help. This is especially helpful for the elderly, and a great way for high-school aged youth to get involved in community service. Post a sign-up sheet in your church building or school notice board (just check with your parents first). This is not only a great way to raise funds for Heifer, but it's also a way to make friends and foster a sense of achievement. Let's get scrubbing, raking, polishing, scouring and dusting for Heifer!
