Heifer International

The above link is one of my favorite charitable organizations. They have great ideals but are not "idealists" . I am skeptical of many such charities that seek to help the poor around the world, but, like Oxfam, they are so transparently astute economically and politically, try as I can, I can find no weakness in their projects, detailed thoroughly on the site. They have by far the most specific, clearest and most understandable examples of some of the unnecessary and negative consequences of trade agreements like WTO and of ill-considered corporate globalization.

Rats, I have no excuse not to give generously! :>
