You might know Aduba best as Crazy Eyes in Orange Is The New Black, but there’s nothing nuts about her incredible humanitarian work. After her first Heifer International event, she decided to strike up a partnership with the organization that focuses on ending world hunger.
“It’s the next step from teaching a man to fish,” said the 36-year-old star. Together they give families a calf to boost their income, only asking that they pay it forward by giving away the calf’s first born to another family who is also in need. What a fantastic way to make a difference.
