A Summer House stay at the Inn at Stonecliffe offers serenity, comfort, and a sense of abundance. But the impact of that night can ripple far beyond Mackinac Island. The profits from your room could provide a cow—along with the veterinary care needed to keep it healthy—to a family in Bangladesh working to escape the cycle of poverty.

For that family, a cow is more than livestock. It’s milk for children to drink each morning. It’s nourishment that builds strength and prevents illness. It’s a source of income from selling dairy in the local market. And with proper veterinary support, the cow becomes a long-term investment that sustains a household for years to come.

Owning this kind of asset transforms a family’s future. It creates stability where there was uncertainty, and dignity where there was struggle. A single cow can mean the difference between surviving day to day and building a foundation for generations to thrive.

Your time of rest in the Summer House becomes a chance at renewal—turning a night of comfort into a family’s springboard of opportunity.
