CHOICE Humanitarian

CHOICE is raising money for family gardens in Kenya, Bolivia, Mexico, Guatemala and Nepal. Purchase a family garden for $150 or train a family in sustainable gardening practices for $50. 

 

In the areas we work, a family garden can mean the ability to concentrate in school, the capacity for healthy pregnancy, and the strength to complete an arduous workday. The CHOICE Family Gardening program is and continues to be an integral part of our overall approach to help families maximize on their existing resources. Schools in the five countries we work in have seen the success of family gardens and are now creating their own ‘community’ gardens.  These gardens provide fresh fruit and vegetables for children’s school lunches.

 

We are raising funds to buy seed and train families and schools to create gardening areas throughout CHOICE work regions.  These gardening areas will bolster income and nutrition for individual families, schools, and entire communities!  Also family gardens are an important training tool to help communities become self-reliant. This program will eventually expand to include livestock, orchards and crop diversification. Join us in creating self-reliant, healthy communities.
