Heifer International Career Opportunities



Heifer International U.S. based Career Opportunities
The mission of Heifer International is to work with communities to end hunger and poverty and to care for the Earth. The simple idea of giving families a source of food rather than short-term relief caught on and has continued for over 65 years. The emphasis on community involvement distinguishes our work from that of global relief organizations. As a result of this work, millions of families in 128 countries have been given the gifts of self-reliance and hope.
Heifer International Global Career Opportunities
Today, Heifer International supports projects in over 49 countries across the globe - from the remote villages in Central Eastern Europe to the deserts in Africa - from the tropics in South East Asia to the mountains in South America.
Heifer Foundation Career Opportunities
Heifer Foundation envisions a sustainable world where hunger and poverty no longer exist. Its mission is to grow and oversee an endowment to support the work of Heifer International. To that end, Heifer Foundation offers a variety of planned charitable giving instruments that provide individuals from all walks of life the ability to help themselves, their loved ones, and a world in great need.
Heifer Legally Separate Entity ("LSE") Opportunities
Heifer International's mission and projects are supported and/or carried out in some countries by LSEs. LSEs are legally separate from Heifer International. LSEs are entities formed under the laws of the country or territory in which they are located—and are best described as smaller "trees" whose mission and charitable work are substantially similar to that of the larger Heifer International "tree". Key attributes of an LSE include, with some exceptions, the following*:
  • Employees of an LSE are the LSE's employees, not Heifer International's employees
  • An individual or entity contracting with an LSE is contracting with the LSE, not Heifer International
  • Unlike the situation described above for Branch Offices, lawsuits against an LSE are lawsuits against the LSE, not Heifer International
  • LSEs have their own governing boards and officers.

*LSEs are currently in various stages of development, and these attributes will therefore not apply in every case.
