Rise Against Hunger

In Gokwe North, Zimbabwe, five schools enrolled in the Planting Seeds for Strong Communities project led by Rise Against Hunger and ADRA Zimbabwe to support the nutritional needs of children and the community through home-grown school gardens. Many women farmers participated in the project, receiving agricultural training to help them boost their incomes and crops to feed their families and school children. For just $1 a day, you can further this impact by sponsoring a women farmer. Watch this video to see firsthand the impact the project has made in the lives of Jacquelyne and Siphiwe, and join us in uplifting women worldwide this Women’s History Month! https://lnkd.in/gsf4KkKm  . . . #RiseAgainstHunger #ItStartsWithAMeal #HungerChampions

When women thrive, hunger doesn't stand a chance. This Women's History Month, we've shared the stories of remarkable farmers like Siphiwe and Jacquelyne in Gokwe North, Zimbabwe — women who, with agricultural training and resources, are creating sustainable solutions to hunger in their community. But these women aren't just growing crops. They're growing economies. They're growing education. They're growing hope. We're so close to our goal of sponsoring 100 women farmers, but we need your help to get there. For just $1 a day — less than a cup of coffee — you can provide a woman farmer with seeds, training and resources that will nourish her family and community. Join us in planting seeds of hope and empowerment before March ends: https://hubs.li/Q03dnpFC0 . . . #RiseAgainstHunger #ItStartsWithAMeal #HungerChampions
