Planting Seeds of Hope: Sponsor a Woman Farmer in Honor of Women’s History Month!

Women worldwide are often the backbone of their families and communities, responsible for nurturing the health and well-being of many lives. Yet, in their selfless dedication, their own needs often go unnoticed. By ensuring women have access to the resources they need to thrive, we can spark a ripple of positive change that impacts everyone around them for generations ahead.

This Women’s History Month, you have the power to transform the lives of women across the globe, helping them flourish economically and ensuring their families and communities have access to nutritious food and fresh produce through agricultural initiatives like the Planting Seeds for Strong Communities project. In Gowke North, Zimbabwe, this initiative, in collaboration between Rise Against Hunger and ADRA, empowers women farmers like Jacquelyne and Siphiwe, who have gained valuable agricultural skills and learned how to produce cooking oil.

Through this project, Jacquelyne has earned an income that supports her education, covers her children’s school fees and enhances her family’s well-being. Her inspiring journey has transformed her life and motivated other women in her community to embrace entrepreneurship. Siphiwe has also boosted her family’s income by selling cooking oil and sunflower by-products, paving the way for new opportunities. Her children now attend school, where they receive nutritious meals from Rise Against Hunger made with locally sourced ingredients.

To see this impact in action firsthand, watch this video and hear from Jacquelyne and Siphiwe about their journey toward food security, nutrition and education. To further this impact, join us in reaching our goal of sponsoring 100 women farmers in honor of Women’s History Month, helping us leave a lasting legacy in the communities we serve.

Imagine the difference you can make with just $1 a day. By sponsoring a woman farmer, you’re not only nourishing her family and community, but you’re also planting seeds of hope and empowerment. Will you stand with us to uplift women around the world? It starts with a meal®, and it starts with you!
