Make a Difference Around the Worldfrom Right Where You Live

“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” – Matthew 25:40

“It would be less work if people shipped me corn, but what if they were no longer able to? It is good to receive training because then it’s mine and I’m not dependent on someone else.” – Douglas

“In the past we had to buy vegetables. Now we have enough year-round and some to sell. I’ve learned the importance of planning my crops. We feel healthy eating our own vegetables, knowing how they were produced.” – Saroam

Hunger and poverty are on the rise in rural communities around the world due to unpredictable weather patterns, flooding, drought, conflict and civil unrest. With Growing Hope, you can be a part of a lasting solution. . .from right where you live.

Our unique Growing Project model uses proceeds from crops or animals raised in the U.S. to fund agricultural development programs overseas. On average it costs about $55 to help one participant find lasting solutions to hunger and break the cycle of poverty for a lifetime.

“I learned how using mulch allows me to switch from growing maize to tomatoes, which sell at a higher price. Now I am able to invest in my children’s education and expand my farming operation.” – John

“In a few years, Juan went from being dependent on food aid to being able to sell corn to the same feeding program. He didn’t need a tractor; he just needed training. It changed his life. . .while being a part of this organization changed mine.” – Steve Witt
