   Some people in the world are still living with hunger. As many as 815 million people in the world didn't have enough food in 2016.

   Heifer international wants to end world hunger. It began in 1930 when an American farmer went to Spain to help people in need. These people often went hungry in the war. That framer, Dan West, tried to use milk to feed these hungry people. And there was a continuous(持续的)need to feed people. This got him to think that what they needed was not a cup, but a cow.

   In 1939, West went back to Indiana and decided to find ways to stop hunger. He thought about giving animals to the hungry people as a gift. Then they can feed and sell the animals for money. Only then could there be an end to hunger.

   On Heifer international's website (//www.heifer.org), you will see a lot of animals you can buy to help those in need. But not just cows, goats, and pigs are for sale. You can also buy fish, or even honeybees! More importantly, you are not just buying an animal for one person. You are buying what can help at least 1000 families. Each gift could make a continuous change.

   But Heifer International's work doesn't end there. They will work with communities(社区) until they don't need outside help. If everyone works together(一起), maybe hunger really can end.
