Thanks to generous Canadian donors, Food for the Hungry (FH) Canada is celebrating an exciting summer of ending poverty.
This summer, FH witnessed 10 communities graduate, exceeded the fundraising goals for Ag-Packs and education, and received over $26,000 toward FH relief efforts for Syrian refugees. We are blown away by the open hearts of our fellow Canadians and their willingness to sacrificially extend a helping hand to thousands of people they've never even met. Thank you for filling this summer with hope for our partnered communities. We couldn't do it without you!
Ag-Packs +
Sustainable agriculture is key to achieving food security in FH partnered communities. Through your support, FH Canada is able to provide start-up seeds, tools, and training to farmers in need all over the world. This summer, during the course of just a few weeks, 197 Canadians gave a total of $51,334 toward agriculture - exceeding our goal by over $3,000! This money will provide farming families with agricultural training, veggie seeds, fruit tree saplings, organic compost training, tools, watering cans, irrigation training & equipment, livestock, and improved access to water points.
Education for All!
FH Canada is proud to partner with nearly 4,000 Child Sponsors that faithfully support over 5,000 children in 46 communities. This summer, FH Child Sponsors stretched beyond their monthly commitment and gave an additional $21,000 to help unsponsored children access education this year. Once again, Canadian generosity exceeded the goal by $3,000!
Syrian Refugee Relief
This summer also saw a surge in the wave of refugees fleeing Syria, pressing into Europe and neighbouring countries. FH Canada put out the call for help just over one week ago and has already received more than $26,000 to provide relief for Syrian refugees. Thank you for your quick response to this urgent need. With your help, FH Canada is supporting thousands of Syrian refugees. If you would like to join in the relief efforts, click here.
