Jennifer's Story

Jennifer’s family has experienced firsthand how simple gifts can multiply into many blessings. At their small farm in Kenya, one hen—a gift from someone like you—laid eggs that hatched into eight healthy baby chicks. Only a few months later, those chickens grew up to produce a whole flock!

Meanwhile, Jennifer’s maize harvest more than quadrupled as she applied agriculture training provided for her through our local partner. “Jennifer feels blessed beyond measure,” our partner shared. As Jennifer learned about Christ through this livelihood project, Jennifer also decided to put her faith in Jesus. She shared her faith with her husband, and he, too, became a believer!

Your gifts nourish families in Jesus’ Name, giving them more and more reasons to rejoice.

Our World Is Facing A “Hunger Catastrophe”.

Disruptions in food production are causing prices to skyrocket. More than 800 million people are suffering right now because they don’t have enough nutritious food. Children are getting hit the hardest, with over 45% of child deaths linked to malnutrition. Samaritan’s Purse is helping end hunger for families by providing emergency food and the tools and training needed to grow crops and raise livestock.

Much of the world, including Europe, has called Ukraine their bread basket. Hundreds of millions of people rely on its wheat, barley, and sunflower oil, but the war has slashed these exports. Millions are driven toward hunger.

"Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who trusts in Him."
Psalm 34:8

How The Livelihood Program Works.

In 21 countries, Samaritan’s Purse Canada operates livelihoods programs in communities struggling with malnutrition and hunger. We work with local partners and churches to invite families in greatest need. Each project adapts to the community, culture, and climate, but in general …

  • Beneficiaries like Jennifer receive hands-on training in natural, inexpensive ways to raise plentiful crops and livestock. This includes protecting soil nutrients and growing complimentary crops.
  • These farmer field schools often happen at a training garden or community field.
  • Beneficiaries receive good tools, seed, livestock, and the other materials to use their new knowledge.
  • After the initial training, our local agronomists make regular visits to give advice and support.
  • Throughout, our teams share values from God’s Word and work with local churches to share the Gospel and host discipleship groups
