Nourish Communities, Grow Futures

Donate to African Farming Communities

Behind every farm is a family. Your donation goes beyond sponsorship — it feeds children, empowers women farmers, and strengthens the communities that grow Africa's food. Every contribution makes a measurable difference.

Feed a Child

$10/month

Provide a child in a farming household with a nutritious daily meal programme. Your donation covers porridge, vegetables, and protein sourced from local AFU farms — keeping children healthy and in school.

Donate $10/month

Feed a Family

$25/month

Supply a farming family of five with a monthly food parcel of maize meal, cooking oil, beans, and fresh produce. Families that are food-secure farm better — your support breaks the cycle of hunger and underproduction.

Donate $25/month

Support a Woman Farmer

$50/month

Fund a woman smallholder with seeds, fertiliser, training, and access to AFU market programmes. Women reinvest 90% of their income back into their families — this is the highest-impact donation you can make.

Donate $50/month

Sponsor a Full Farm

$100/month

Cover the complete cost of running a smallholder farm for one month — inputs, insurance, market access, and family nutrition. You receive a personalised quarterly impact report showing exactly how your funds were used.

Donate $100/month

100% of donations go to the field

AFU operational costs are covered separately by our corporate partners and grant funders. When you donate, every dollar reaches farmers and their families — no overheads deducted, no admin fees, full transparency.

Where Your Funds Go

Your sponsorship is pooled with other contributors and distributed across farmers who need it most. No single farmer is left behind.

15%

Training & Support

Agronomic training, financial literacy, and ongoing mentorship through AFU programs.
