Heifer International Petting Zoo - Fulton, MO
19/05/10 12:23 Filed in: Heifer

As a part of their Leadership and Service Program, students at Westminster College, in Fulton, sponsored a petting zoo and cow kissing contest to raise money for Heifer International. One little girl was particularly fond of the calf. Also present was a llama, a pig, goats and baby chicks. The money will be used by Heifer International to provide animals to impoverished families as a way of making them self-reliant. For more information about Heifer International talk to Carol Oliver at the Office of Creative Ministries. (oliver@umocm.com / 573-474-7155)
