Twenty years ago, upon learning that our local Christian Children's Homes did not have room in their budget to buy milk, let alone other dairy products, a group of eight women embarked on what they lovingly referred to as the “Milk Mission”. Through their passion, dedication, leadership and commitment to the dairy industry, the United Dairy Women organization was formed. Though we have changed our name to the Milk & Honey Foundation to incorporate other women and leaders in our community, the mission remaims the same, and efforts have been increased to provide not only dairy but also beef products.
