| Introduction | Organics for Orphans: Our Hope for their Future Organics For Orphans, a Hope for the Nations and Love mercy program, is targeting two issues endemic in Africa: the impoverishment of farmers and the homelessness of millions of orphans. Africa is the only continent where food production per capita has fallen in the last four decades. Other continents have tripled their outputs. Many Africans eke out a living on small plots, relying on unsustainable methods for farming crops with low market value. Faced with declining productivity, small-scale farmers often abandon the land to swell the ranks of the extreme poor in urban slums. There are an estimated 34 million orphans in Africa. Time and again, we see the neighbours and extended families of these orphans open their homes, even in the face of their own poverty. Organics for Orphans supports the communities that support orphans, by creating the conditions for sustainable agriculture. CONTACT Organics for Orphans: gospeldog@yahoo.com |
