After reading Nicholas Kristof's "Half the Sky," Caroline engagaed 25 of her friends to participate in the Heifer Project and they bought a cow for a family. That was the beginning. Each month Caroline would organize an act of giving, and each month the number of participants would grow. What began as an intimate giving circle has grown into a 501c3 grant receiving/giving foundation that works to empower women and girls around the world through education, training and community development.
