Plants-4-Hunger is our campaign that feeds people without harming animals.
Instead of using a “gift-pig” as food from a group like Heifer International, your gift will support on-the-ground, animal-free hunger relief projects.
We raised $12,240 in 2014 in addition to our on-going grants. Our four hand-picked programs are detailed below.
We send 100% of donations to these groups that provide both immediate assistance and long-term community solutions.
Plenty International works with agricultural experts to grow and distribute three varieties of non-gmo soybeans to farming families.
Their Karen’s Nutrition Program works with Guatemalan women to improve the nutrition of undernourished children living in extreme poverty at the Guatemala City landfill.
Local women’s groups produce enough fortified bakery foods and soy milk to distribute to 400 children living at the dump site and to sell for other expenses.
This is a fantastic local group (in VT) that I support with volunteer design work: http://www.salvationfarms.org Are there any gleaning operations around you?
