Our mission is to improve the livelihoods of Zambian female farming cooperatives. In Zambia and similar countries, women are the backbone of agriculture yet toil away with their bare hands and feet and basic tools. The Harvest Fund creates a profitable half-hectare vegetable plot for each of its 10+ cooperatives that is watered year-round with a solar-powered irrigation system. We provide seed, fertilizer, and regenerative agriculture training to make these women farmers more productive and permanently escape poverty. We've trained over 200 marginalized women farmers across 6 farming cooperatives. We expanded to 3 districts across 2 of Zambia's 10 provinces. For each of these cooperatives, we have installed solar-powered water pumps, thereby giving them access to running water which allows them to water their crops year-round despite the vicious drought plaguing their country. We've ensured that villagers are able to farm enough to consume 2-3 meals per day, no longer being malnourished. For their staple crop, we saw yields increase by 25%. And here's the most encouraging part-50% of farmers increasedtheir income by 50%. As a result of these community benefits, 100% of the children are able to go to school because their mothers are able to afford basic school supplies, such as uniforms, pencils, and shoes. In summary, we have transformed women from a life of farming to survive to farming as a business. 0 86858 86858 Michelle Kurian Chief Strategy Officer 30 0 Ackson Mwanza Chief Executive Officer 30 18000 Jim Robbins Board of Directors - Chair, Strategy 1 0 William Chilufya Board of Directors - Chair, Community Development 1 0 Ogochukwe Ibok Board of Directors - Chair, Legal and Human Resources 1 0 Trevor Maisiri Board of Directors - Chair, Programming 1 0 Fannie Gondwe Board of Directors - Chair, Agribusiness Management 0.5 0 Tatiana Mata Board of Directors - Chair, Agricultural Development 0.5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 DC Michelle Kurian PO Box 1103 Washington DC 20009 2026701162 1 ZA 1 ZA 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 59114 93850 174039 175447 165768 668218 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 59114 93850 174039 175447 165768 668218 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 668218 4511 3101 -1896 5716 0 0 0 10517 10517 4511 3101 -1896 10517 0 16233 0 0 0 0 63625 96951 172143 185964 165768 684451 0.97628 0.95480 0.02372 0.02927 X Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Bank charges and fees;394|Fuel and Oil;17447|Health Insurance;3138|Property Insurance;415|Internet;1313|Internship Stipend;177|Marketing;5577|Office Supplies;218|Payroll Employer Taxes;2775|Coporate Tax;25|Telephone;361|Travel and Logistics;2562|Wire transfer fees;160|Operational Expenses;86858^Total;121420^ Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 20 This is attributed to wire transfer fees and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange.
