We’re glad to have our Board of Directors and colleagues from Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) at CAF America Headquarters this week for their summer board meetings.

In Nigeria, the effects of climate change and industrial pollution have caused a 50% post harvest loss, costing the agricultural sector over $2 billion each year. In efforts to empower local women farmers and families against this economic burden, our grantee partner, Women Environmental Programme, promotes sustainable environmental, socio-political, and economic development while advocating for women’s rights. Their initiatives have improved food security in Nigeria and transformed the lives of over 20 million people worldwide. Learn more about WEP in our latest Story of Impact: https://lnkd.in/e5mWcaDK
