There s something in there, what could it be?

Oh, this isn t a gift for me.

This is a gift from Heifer.

For Rwanda, you re gonna go there.

Whoopsie, careful.

You re gonna go to Bangladesh.

(chick chirps) Woo!

Not so fast.

You re gonna go to Nepal.

Boys, don t go too far.

I just want you to know

that you re all going to families

that are gonna love you.

You re gonna produce eggs, like 20 a day, maybe.

And that s like 600 a month.

And that s gonna feed families.

Your gorgeous manure is going to fertilize the ground.

And you are essentially that famous expression,

the gift that keeps on giving.

No, no, no, not over the edge.

Not near the edge, let s stay together, boys.

This is Heifer.

This is what Heifer does.

This is what I do every Christmas.

And every gift is I give an animal.

And if you re really lucky you get a flock of chicks,

or you can get a goat,

or you can get piggies,

and if you re super duper lucky, you can get a pig.

That s Heifer.
