'Beatrice's Goat' teaches sustainability lesson to public and educators

CLEMSON — It doesn't always take much to make a difference. For Beatrice
Biira, it took a small goat. The Ugandan will take her message of
sustainability and hope to teachers, future teachers and even some
elementary school children Wednesday and Thursday when she visits Clemson
University.

International gave a goat to Biira's impoverished family in a small
African village when she was 9 years old and longed for a chance to attend
school. The goat provided enough milk for the family and some extra to sell,
enabling Biira to attend a local school, which led to a scholarship to a New
England prep school and now enrollment at Connecticut College. Her story is
told and illustrated in a children's book called "Beatrice's Goat."
