Cow Christmas Gift
Cow $300. Surplus milk can be sold to provide income.
Imagine giving a gift this holiday season that would greatly improve and brighten a child's life.

Foster Parents Plan is a charity that offers unique and truly worthwhile Christmas gift ideas.



The organization allows you to buy desperately needed gifts for Third World children and families such as livestock, school supplies, clean water system, literacy classes, medical training for healhcare professional and much more.

Gift of Clean Water for one child
Clean water for one child $50


These Gifts Of Hope can be given under your name or under an honoree's.





How does the Gifts Of Hope program work?
For example, should you choose to donate a cow, the receiving family would be trained in livestock care, the community would get involved by helping build housing structures for the animal and free veternary care and medicines would be provided.


Gift of Bee Keeping Kit
Bee Keeping Kit $20

Gifts of Hope are available for purchase year-round.




Gift of a Goat
Goat $40


Don't you know someone who would be thrilled that a hungry family was provided a means of food and income in their name?



Gift of Education
Educate a Girl $1,225 Scholarship

Please consider donating to this worthwhile charity. Go to Foster Parents Plan: Gifts Of Hope to give a Gift Of Hope this Christmas.

Thanks Pegasus, I've always thought there must be a way to do this but wasn't sure how. I've always been fascinated with the idea of giving say a cow or a pig to a family in such need.

I'm so happy to hear that I helped connect you to this organization, Mrs M.

Actually, I sponsor a Kenyan child through Foster Parents Plan, so that's how I know about this charity. They don't just throw money at a problem; they teach & train families to become self-sufficient one day.

Cheers

Sorry, Melissa,

Is it just me...when I click the link from my email telling me I have a new comment on a post, it has 'anonymous' filled in the tag field.
When I go to "To create a fully formatted comment please click here' all the previous comments disappear. So, I guess I remembered wrong who had left the message!

If I got into all the bugs with logins on Orble I could be here all day - you have no idea how much they have stuffed me up as well - especially when I want to set up a new post!

I just thought it was funny that you would Pick Mrs M's name when technically I could be called Mrs M.A. ; )
