Acres4life

The Acres4Life Program What we seek? A4L seeks to help impoverished people break out of hopeless and destructive patterns through self-sustaining farms that provide food, water, jobs, security and HOPE! How we do it? A4L seeks to purchase land that has been identified as a great potential for growing crops and raising livestock. Then, through local partnerships, A4L hires local people to clear the land and prepare it for farming. How do we manage the process? Locals are consulted for the selection of crops and livestock based on local preferences and our farm expert's calculations for ideal crops for the land and climate. Then, the farm is launched with great hope and anticipation as locals are hired to help plant the crops, build the livestock barns, tend to all of it and await the first harvest. What can I expect from the first harvest? As the first crops are harvested, hope and enthusiasm grow as the locals see how their hard work and their land can lead to food, water, jobs, shelter and most importantly a vision for their future. What is our final goal? Our goal is to help impoverished people throughout the world turn their raw land into a self-sustaining farm that provides life's necessities for them and for generations to come.
