Building a world where all people can be happy

Grant to One Acre Fund

 

One Acre Fund provides inputs (seed, fertilizer, financing), provides training on farming techniques, and provides harvest markets to small farmers in Kenya and Rwanda. This producer group approach has been shown to increase take home farm income by 100%. Currently serving 4000 farm families (including 16,000 children), it plans to be serving 30,000 farm families by the end of 2010. The $20,000 grants from the AllPeopleBeHappy foundation for 2008-2010 are a part of an overall one million dollar effort to implement this program model as a new tool in the world's fight against hunger and poverty among the rural poor.   (www.oneacrefund.org)

  
Announcements
Update - Friday, February 26, 2010

 

We have initiated an AllPeopleBeHappy Volunteer Service Grant.  Dedicated overseas volunteers not only donate their time, but they have to pay their own expenses and often are expected to contribute to the cost of supplies and services.  We will be offering matching grants to help offset these expenses.  For the Summer 2010 awards, organizations currently receiving AllPeopleBeHappy foundation grants have been invited to submit applicants.
