Food is freedom

Center for Agriculture & Food Security
Convoy of Hope is passionate about equipping vulnerable individuals, families, and communities with the agricultural education, tools, and seeds they need to produce life-sustaining crops. When we give people the ability of knowing exactly where their next meal is coming from, it opens doors to the future — to freedom. Independence. Resilience. Peace.
To date, more than 55,000 individuals around the world have been resourced with education, tools, and one-on-one coaching through Convoy of Hope’s Agriculture initiative. Now, we have the opportunity to significantly expand our work to meet the rising worldwide need for food security.
