Empowering the Poor to Succeed Through Agriculture
Cross Catholic Outreach and Light a Single Candle have partnered together to empower poor families to succeed by helping them to learn and implement practical skills to provide a sustainable source of food, that they will pass on to their children, neighbors and friends. The community garden provides additional nutrition to daily school lunches, while training local farmers to implement improved farming techniques to villagers will be able to produce a flourishing crop and feed their families. Community members are taught lessons in permaculture, erosion prevention, the importance of preparing the soil, and the value of diversifying their crops to reap a better harvest.
