Heifer International in Little Rock, Arkansas, works with communities globally to end hunger and poverty and to care for the earth. Heifer provides gifts of livestock and training to help families improve their nutrition and generate income in sustainable ways. The non-profit organisation refers to the animals as “living loans” because, in exchange for their livestock and training, each family agrees to give one of its animal’s offspring to another family in need. Heifer’s impressive World Headquarters facility in Little Rock blends art and eco-friendly innovation. The layout of the buildings allows natural light in, and sensors adjust lighting for overcast days and night. Heifer’s headquarters maintains the highest LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification developed by the U.S. Green Building Council.
