A potential major-gifts donor could be invited to a wine-and-cheese reception at someone’s home; an educational session at one of the organization’s ranches; a holiday “live gift market,” where they can meet gift animals up close and personal; or an all-out study tour of Heifer’s ranches and partner communities around the world.
