Short description

HAIFOP is a model project to raise awareness amongst the lowest income earners of how to find alternative source of nutritious food and income to boost them as they educate their children.

The problem we aim to solve

Hidden hunger is caused by low income in families. Parents focus on being employed and spend much of their time rendering services in peoples firms or petty trade, earning them little salary. Low earning families can’t afford nutritious and satisfying meals. A number of children go to schools on empty stomachs, while they have had unsatisfying and unappetizing diet. They become stunted and lower performing in class in the long run. To tackle hidden hunger I wish to help families afford quality and quantity food for the school going children.

Our solution

“Household income and food projects” is a mixed farm pilot project that is intended to equip farmers with a wealth of knowledge of utilizing small spaces around people’s homes for agriculture. Our objective is to grow vegetables, mushrooms, and fruits and raise animals like chicken or cows. Those will provide manure to fertilize soils for gardening. The animals reared will provide milk, while greens and mushrooms will provide plant proteins. The nature of this project will support families with low income and provide foodstuff.
