Building Sustainable Communities:

One Family at a Time

9.2% of the World's Population Lives on Less than $2.15 per Day.

We believe that by giving them a hand up, we can change that number! Teaching families how to grow their own gardens and raise their own food is the answer. Along with implementing community-owned projects, our local community directors help facilitate comprehensive programs addressing the challenges of food, water, education, and health.

When a family is struggling with how to eat, nothing else matters. Day after day, their thoughts are driven by the same fear. How will I feed my children?

Women in extreme poverty can walk an average of 6 hours every single day to access water…and it’s not even clean water. They are at risk of disease.

Education is everything when we are working to end poverty. If a family is living on less than $2 a day, where will they find funds to send their kids to school?

Nutrition, hygiene, and mental health support are critical for each member of a family to thrive. In rural communities, the challenge is how to reach the individual.

What's Happening Now

Imagine a world without hunger, where families everywhere have the skills to grow their own food with sustainable Garden Towers + access to Clean Water

What is a Garden Tower?

A Garden Tower is a simple, sustainable, and scalable way to teach families how to grow their own food.

Simple

Garden Towers are made from shade fabric that is easily found all over the world. They are 4 feet tall, and 2 1/2 feet in diameter, and can be built on any surface as long as there is adequate soil with access to water nearby.

Sustainable

A Garden Tower can be used for up to 10 years when taken care of correctly. It can be rebuilt with new soil, replanted with seedlings, and provide up to 1500 meals per year for a family of 5 when they use our Garden Tower system.

Scalable

Garden Towers can be used by individuals, schools, families, and communities to grow food. They can accommodate 120 plants and require 30% less water than traditional in-ground gardening. They can be grown in urban areas, rural areas, and anything in between.

Stewardship & Self-Reliance

When a family works together to grow food, they are able to use the savings from not buying vegetables on other needs. They can start businesses selling excess vegetables to their neighbors. They are able to increase their incomes and rise above the extreme poverty line.

What Impact Does Your Donation Make?

100% of your donation goes to provide Sustainable Food, Clean Water, Education, and Health to families in need.

We provide two garden towers to each family, along with the training and mentoring that teaches them to grow their own food. From there, we help them start businesses in raising chickens or goats. This increases their income from selling vegetables, eggs, and milk.

The first level of support is a water tank to capture rainwater, reducing the number of trips that a woman or girl has to take to a dirty river. Then, we focus on bringing clean water to the community by protecting springs and drilling boreholes.

Through our school fees program, students are able to finish high school and start on a path out of poverty through education. In our training centers we provide business development, reproductive health, and mental health classes.

Our HopeKit provides reproductive health training and reusable feminine hygiene to women and girls in the families we work with. The HopeSaC is a fabric thermal cooker that reduces the amount of time women spend over the fire cooking.
