Go support Heifer, this store has so many beautiful hand crafted items. Last visit, I purchased Goat Soap and was making the cashier laughed as I explained to my peeps that using that soap helps keep the skin from smaller like the greater outdoors when you go inside. They even sell small plants, aloe vera, purchased, thirsty but healthy plants full of life.

Beautiful campus. Came for a Research Conference. Hard to imagine that I’ve been living here for almost 6 years and never visited prior to now. The staff are really friendly and accommodating. Even the caterer that they contract with went above and beyond to ensure that I was offered non-alcoholic beverage choices. I love what the organization strives to accomplish through their mission.

I gave to this organization late 2020 and felt pretty good about it so I decided to do another donation late 2021. THAT WILL BE THE LAST TIME I DONATE. Since my last donation, I have been bombarded with telemarketing calls. I explained to them that I really only make these types of donations at the end of the year. They just want my money and they want it NOW. These people do not take 'no' for an answer. They have gone from the top of my list of donation charities down to below the bottom. Never again, Heifer International.

Neat place cool story. I went to support some charity cupcakes and it was delicious. Great way to support the community in a unique place you don't find in many cities!

Strolling through the lovely gardens and fountains at Heifer International this afternoon. I did some consulting for them a few years back, and they are, by far, my favorite non-profit. Starting with a shipment of 17 young female cows to Puerto Rico in 1944, HI has distributed healthy and very much-needed livestock such as cows, goats, sheep, bees, and water buffalo -- along with training and other resources -- to more than 105.1 million people in more than 125 countries. Their 2020 annual report sums up best why I love them so. "We believe that ending hunger and poverty begins by developing long-term solutions in partnership with the people we are serving. Through this work, we've helped empower more than 34 million families since our humble beginnings in 1944. When communities and other stakeholders are actively engaged in implementation and financing, projects are much more sustainable. This enables us to work on a deeper, more concentrated level, fostering robust economic markets that allow family members to earn a living income, so that the basic needs of everyone in the household are met. We have seen results in transforming the level of transparency, accountability, and innovation in the nonprofit world through block-chain technology. Our School Milk Program in the United Republic of Tanzania is providing milk for children who suffer from a lack of proper nutrition while creating a reliable market for producers. Through the Hatching Hope program, our partnership with Cargill is allowing farmers to expand poultry production and sell their products at market for a living income. We are highly committed to running an efficient and effective organization. We believe values-based partnerships and investments are necessary for long-term growth." Hells yes times ten. We very much need more organizations like this, and if you want to donate, or even share a story, they would love to hear from you. Next time you're in Little Rock, come check out Heifer International. It will not disappoint. In fact, tell them Jason sent you.

Wonderful experience with the goats and the best goat soap I've ever used. Fascinating place.

This company is 100% BS!!! The people who collect donations try and scam you into monthly payments, claiming there is no other option. Then once you agree to give them your information, they charge it without asking for an amount. They just assume you want to donate what they want you to. Listen, $40 isn't going to keep me from paying my mortgage this month, but the fact that they charged it without asking is a total scam job. They will not receive one red cent from me and I will actively speak out against them any chance I get. Donate your money to worthy causes with honorable people.

I just walked around the grounds because it was a Sunday and it was closed. I will definitely come back to investigate more thoroughly.
