Africa has 30% of the world’s natural resources, an
abundance of arable land, and some of the best climate, rainfall, and soil in
the world. Yet, 35% of the population is
chronically undernourished and the number of people living in poverty has
increased.*
Sinani is partnering with the I WAS HUNGRY program to foster
food security in rural communities. I WAS HUNGRY is transforming communities
with a real solution to poverty, by training farmers to faithfully steward
their land, family and finances. This is
achieved by teaching agricultural skills, which bring about a substantial
increase in crop yield, as well as financial training, to manage the increase
in resources. Also included, is a
training component by Foundations in Family, to strengthen the family unit. All
three components are vital to bringing an end to hunger, dependency and
poverty. Crown Financial Ministries and Foundations for Farming have combined
forces with their proven methodologies to serve those dependent upon the land
by empowering the people to be the best farmers in the world.
Sinani will carefully select a community to partake in the two-week
program which will train 30 individuals, including key community leaders and
influencers from that community. After
the training session, Foundations for Farming will continue to support that
community with follow up visits for the next two years in an effort to increase
the rate of success.
