When farmers come together, great things happen. Our farmer members and other contributors use the blessings of agriculture to positively impact lives and rural communities around the world. Through essential needs, educational assistance, and disaster relief, we work to empower and inspire hope with generosity and humility.
UnCommon Farms Foundation uses agriculture as a vehicle to positively change the lives of families and communities around the world. Through our three programs—Care, Hope, and Seed—we ensure everyone we help has access to nutritional food, immediate relief after disasters, and the tools they need to be self-reliant.
UnCommon Farms Foundation also provides five scholarships annually for trade school and college-bound students. When disaster strikes a member family or a community, we provide compassion and assistance to help them through their struggles. We are grateful for the ongoing commitment of resources by our members that provides the opportunity to improve the lives of those we serve.
When natural disasters strike, UnCommon Farms Foundation provides swift relief. By partnering with organizations such as the Arkansas Rice Depot we make sure that communities impacted get the food and products they need to start rebuilding.
Investing in education is investing in the future, which is why we offer a variety of scholarships and internships for students pursuing a future in agriculture. Students working towards degrees in agriculture-related fields or trade schools are eligible.
We have partnered with Life’s Heart to help in their mission to give families in Kenya the chance to be self-sufficient by digging wells giving communities access to clean water, and providing communities with banana trees to cultivate.
We are committed to family farmers. When there is a devastating event or untimely death, we work to provide physical efforts and investments of equipment to help the impacted family complete their harvest.
100% of your donations go to help change or save a life. UnCommon Farms Foundation uses agriculture as a means to fight hunger, offer support following catastrophic events, and provide education and training to promote self-sufficiency. Thanks to your tax-deductible donation, we make a difference in rural communities around the world.
