Rose Cunningham, the leader of our partner organization in Nicaragua, lives on the remote, north coast, where Indigenous families suffer extreme poverty and hunger. What’s more, intensifying storms caused by climate change regularly destroy the harvests they depend on for survival.
To combat this, Rose installed seed banks to protect seeds from storms and mobilized local women farmers. In these photos, you’ll see some of those women farmers that you support. Thanks to you, we can give them the seeds they need to raise a successful harvest. What’s more, with the help of Rose’s seed bank, women farmers are now cultivating and saving seeds from one harvest to the next and growing the food their families need to survive.
Thank you for supporting women farmers in the fight to combat climate change!
