As Thanksgiving approaches, our hearts are with families experiencing chronic food shortages and ever deepening hunger in countries like Cambodia, Ethiopia, Haiti and the Democratic Republic of Congo to name just a few. Floods, storms, landslides, eroding economies, armed conflicts and COVID are the obstacles face as people simply try to access food.
A gift will help provide garden tools and seeds to establish year-round household vegetable gardens, seedlings to create backyard fruit tree orchards and fish fingerlings to stock family fishponds. It will also provide the training needed to ensure families make the most of the resources you give. With a gift, people can transform their lives and step out of hunger and poverty, just like Dawili did when he received help.
“Fishponds have transformed my life and my family,” says Dawili who started with one fish pond and expanded as his confidence grew. Today, Dawili is a successful fish farmer with a secure source of nutritious food year-round and a reliable income that enables him to meet all of his family’s needs and even send his daughter to university - a first for his family.
You can make a lifetime of difference by putting tools. resources and training in the hands of families so they can become self-sufficient and put food on their tables every day.
