In the Andes highlands, an alpaca’s cashmere-like wool can support an entire family. One animal produces 12 pounds of strong, warm, lightweight wool every year for 25 years. The wool fetches a good price, helping the family buy food, clothing, and other essentials. Make a sound investment in the life of a Peruvian or Ecuadorian family with the gift of an alpaca.
