Rise Against Hunger

🎥 Did you know agriculture improves access to nutritious food and is a consistent driver of income generation and improved livelihoods in southwestern Kenya? Find out how in the fourth and final installment of the storytelling series, It Starts With a Meal: Kenya! The Feed for Knowledge project, led by Rise Against Hunger and Rural Family Hope, has trained more than 500 farmers to help meet the nutritional needs of their families, schools and communities.
