I wasn't sure which forum to put this in, so move it if it belongs somewhere else:
We are thinking about making a small donation for beekeeping to either Heifer International or Samaritan's Purse.
Both claim they will provide a hive, bees, and training to a family. Samaritan's Purse says it will go to a family in remote Iraq. Heifer International does not say where it will go, but their models in the photo have Hispanic names.
Does anyone here have any insight into these organizations? We have donated to both in the past, but this is the first time we realized Samaritan's Purse offers Animal gifts.
Heifer International asks for a donation of $30, Samaritan's Purse asks for $20.
For $2,500 I can donate a Honey Bee Farm through Heifer International. But that's beyond our budget.
