Thrive For Good hasn't added a story.
With as little as $5, you can help end hidden hunger.
Simply choose one of the gifts below that fits your giving budget. Your donation towards tools, seeds, supplies or training will go directly to help families, communities, schools and prisoners who wouldn’t have access to healthy food without you.
All donations before December 31st will be doubled thanks to a generous donation from an anonymous donor who will match up to $20,000 total in gifts. That means, with your help we can empower more than 2,500 people to grow health sustainably and step out of poverty in the year 2020.
Perks
Growing superfoods is only half the battle in ending hidden hunger and using food as medicine. In many communities, the only food that’s regularly cooked is cornmeal. But making the shift to nutrient-dense food prep requires skills and knowledge. Thrive nutrition trainers teach communities hands-on how to prepare the foods that grow healthy kids and keep families disease-free.
Each community garden needs the power of seeds to start. Once the garden beds are dug, prepared and ready, seeds are needed to get started. Within 30-45 days we start seeing the 'fruit of our labour' as produce is ready to harvest. You can supply an entire community garden with seeds today.
You can make a difference and sponsor all of the supply and seed costs for an entire community garden. A "Life Garden" empowers an impoverished community to be self-sufficient, starting with nutrition. When people can take health into their own hands, they have new dignity and pride. Nutritional-security also gives them hope for a better future without the constant burden of disease.
Students with a passion for community development come to our Academy in Kitale, Kenya for hands-on experiential learning in the core methods for growing health. Upon graduating with a ‘Growing Health Certificate’, these community influencers go out and train others in villages, urban zones, schools, orphanages, prisons, HIV Groups and even hospitals.
Over 95% of meals for inmates are corn-based, leading to horrific malnutrition, disease and nearly 1 preventable death per week. Many prisoners are parents with children in prison with them. Help us train and empower over 100 inmates to plant gardens and grow health. The impact changes lives beyond prison, as inmates leave prison with the skills to create Life Gardens for their families, communities and generate income.
Support the creation of Life Gardens and the power of nutrition to change the lives of children. Life Garden programs at schools prevent disease, stunting and improve school attendance. Your impact goes further when excited students take their gardening skills home and develop kitchen gardens for their families.
