Mission

The Harvest Fund's vision is to be an enterprise that builds the agricultural economy while eradicating poverty and promoting environmental sustainability. 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.

Program accomplishments

  • 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.
