One Acre Fund



Farmers are the solution to poverty and hunger. They make up the majority of the population in the world’s developing countries. And they are some of the hardest-working people on the planet.

Medeatrice is one of our 180,000 bosses. She is a farmer in Nyamirimbo village in Rwanda, and in this picture, she is carrying some farm inputs back to her house.

One Acre Fund puts Farmers First in everything that we do. By listening to our boss, we created a simple new way for her to significantly increase farm income on every planted acre. We are now 2,000 staff strong, and growing fast.
