Church-Based Community Transformation
Help farmers grow 2x-3x more food and escape poverty for good
Hunger goes beyond the dinner table. Constantly worrying about where your child’s next meal will come from makes it impossible to plan for the future. A poor crop means no income and no savings, and escaping from poverty is a fantasy.
This “hunger gap” perpetuates the cycle of poverty and leads to violence, stunted growth in children, and gender inequality.
We don’t believe that hunger is part of God’s Kingdom. Through conservation agriculture training you can help farmers grow more crops so that they can escape hunger, earn more income, and escape poverty for good.
Over the last year
We work with local churches to train communities to use simple, environmentally friendly agriculture techniques, from the fundamentals of mulching to Smart Crop Rotation.
Mulching keeps available moisture in the soil, suppresses weeds, and improves soil fertility.
Within three years, farmers are able to increase their crop output by 2-3X and reduce the hunger gap.
The solution to poverty is spiritual as much as it is physical. Instead of offering handouts, you will be partnering with local churches to permanently lift families out of poverty. Will you join us?
