Story
World Food Day Fundraiser Challenge!
At Bountifield, we focus on solutions that drive equitable and sustainable change to generate resilient food systems that work for people and the environment. This includes improving access to postharvest technologies to reduce food loss and to increase the supply of nutritious food available at markets.
But in addition to supporting African farmers and entrepreneurs, there are things that YOU can do right in our own homes and local communities that affect our health, planet and food producers.
That's why, throughout the month of October, we are hosting our World Food Day Fundraiser Challenge!
We CHALLENGE YOU to rethink your own relationship with food and how your habits can impact people and planet. Join us as we RETHINK food systems both locally and globally.

I have increased the number of farmers that I serve from two hundred to three hundred. There are more I have not worked with previously but with the increased threshing capacity and speed, I will be able to serve more farmers in the community. Benteter, Kenya
