Problem

Malnutrition is a leading cause of death and disease in poor countries, and food handouts are not the solution. IMC works with local communities to give women the knowledge and supplies they need to sustainably farm small plots of land.

The Gift

Your gift can provide seeds and tools for one woman. When you give a woman something as simple as the seeds and tools she needs to grow food, you are empowering her and her entire community to break free from the cycle of hunger and disease. You are supporting good nutrition, promoting sustainable agriculture, and helping to strengthen communities that have been affected by conflict and famine. And since IMC teaches women to grow plants found in their local environment, you are also preserving cultural knowledge about local crops.
