TIM AND GLORIA WHEELER HONDURAS ENDOWMENT
This fund honors the lengthy and invaluable service of Heifer’s Honduras Country Director, Tim Wheeler, and his wife, Gloria. The Wheelers often host Heifer study tours in their country, using them as an opportunity to educate guests about the realities of poverty, but also of the success of Heifer’s method. They are committed to making a difference, and set a fine example for us all.
One of the poorest countries in the Western Hemisphere, Honduras is still trying to regroup from Hurricane Mitch in 1998. A goal of the program there, as with all Heifer programs, is to support projects that can generate both food and economic resources to improve the families’ quality of life while being environment-friendly. Diversification is important, especially for a country that seems to fluctuate between drought and flooding, therefore Heifer has introduced beekeeping projects to coffee farmers and animals to monocropping farmers.
To join others committed to making a difference in Honduras, please give today.
