Gifts which support Food & Livelihoods

By buying these gifts, you’ll support Tearfund’s partners to provide people with the opportunity to access good food to feed their families, and potentially create a small business. It may be a vegetable garden kit, livestock like cows, goats or chickens, or training to help farmers make the most of their crops.

Luke (pictured) participated in agricultural training with Tearfund’s partner Ola Fou in the Solomon Islands.

“With the agricultural training, I have seen the benefits already,” he says. “I have planted crops: some are for my family, others I sell at the market, bringing income to the family. I’ve also learned how to make use of readily available materials to make compost and organic fertiliser. I grow taro, peanuts, ginger, chillies and spring onion. Guests come to buy from the family’s vegetable garden. Now me and my family are getting a consistent income to meet my family’s needs.”

“I was hungry and you gave me something to eat.” Matthew 25:35
