Support our Work
Women Empower their Communities
Empowered woman can empower an entire community. The UN estimates that for every $1 a woman earns, 90 cents goes back into her family, creating upward mobility that breaks the cycle of poverty. By working with women’s groups, we help women build food security whilst producing income for their families.
Powering Community Gardens in the US
38 million people in the US are food insecure. Charitable community gardens can change that. Community gardens promote food literacy and increase access to healthy, nutritious food for families in need across the country.
Crisis Recovery for Refugees and IDPs
Vegetable growing programs can provide an enduring, stabilizing element in crisis recovery. Post-crisis food markets can feature wild shortages and surpluses, price spikes and crashes, and food-quality concerns. Vegetable production can provide long term resilience and stability.
Seeds for School Gardens
School gardens grow vegetables and also grow future leaders to counter hunger and poverty in their communities. In many places, a garden-supported school lunch is the only healthy meal of the day and motivates parents to keep their kids in school.
