*ANIMAL HUSBANDRY: Food For The Poor has ongoing animal husbandry and apiary programs that support impoverished families and communities. The funds that are raised from animals and bees in this catalog are used to support the aforementioned programs.

You will receive a Certificate of Appreciation with a photograph of the family in front of their secure and comfortable home.
