Give a Living Gift

Giving the gift of livestock, for example an Irish dairy cow, is like winning the lotto to a family who are struggling.

Support Groups all over Ireland help us with animal donations and fundraising for transportation costs. Please consider starting one in your local area. Think of the difference you can make. 

Give Monthly

Give Monthly and help us plan for the future.

By giving on a regular basis, it means we can plan for the future. An annual gift of over €250 (€21 per month) means we can claim an additional 45% on your gift.
