fighting hunger

foundation supports hunger relief programs through its contributions

CEF supports CHF (Canadian Hunger Foundation) in a number of income and livelihood enterprises aimed at helping people of the world overcome chronic poverty, dependency on relief, and achieve long-term food security.  Through a generous agreement with CIDA (Canadian International Development Agency) our $500 a month contribution will be leveraged at 29:1 to provide a total monthly contribution of $14,500.  These funds will first be put to use in Bati, Ethiopia where farm equipment and animals will be provided to female-headed households to help reduce workloads and improve income diversification.  The funds will also help households build wells for clean-drinking water, drip irrigation systems for crops and water systems to divert spring water from mountaintops.
