Posted by DEAN SKIP RUTHERFORD – Congratulations to our friends and neighbors at Heifer International for achieving platinum LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) for its headquarters building here in Little Rock. This is one of the highest and most prestigious environmental awards, and it proves that education, economic development and the environment can work together.
Heifer is a fabulous organization devoted to ending world hunger and promoting sustainable growth. Clinton School students have the unique opportunity to work with Heifer on public service projects here and throughout the world. Heifer’s CEO Jo Luck and her team are to be commended for their dedication and vision, and we at the Clinton School are privileged to have the opportunity to be associated with them. There are very few cities in America with platinum LEED buildings. Heifer, once again, puts Little Rock on the map.
