There is no single way to go about ending poverty. Which is why no two FYF projects look the same. The support we offer ranges from supporting people to improve their harvests to helping them change policies at a national level.
|
| Improving harvests |
|
In rural India and Malawi lots of families struggle to feed their families for six months of the year. We support people to improve their harvests and rebuild the soil for future generations by using sustainable farming practices.
Sustainable farming protects the environment, doesn't rely on expensive inputs like chemical fertilizer and reduces vulnerability to poor rains.

| Boosting family income |
|
Most of the people we work with survive on just 40p a day and struggle to meet their most basic needs.
We support people to set up small businesses by providing business, vocational and financial skills training, creating links to markets and developing saving and credit groups.

| Accessing services |
|
The families we work with live in remote and poor areas and often lack access to the most basic services.
We empower vulnerable people to make a real difference in their community by raising awareness of their rights and supporting people to access clean water, healthcare and education.

| Combatting marginalisation |
|
The people we work with live in isolated communities and therefore often struggle to speak out against the policies that are having a negative impact on their lives.
We help communities to get together and make sure that their voices are heard at a local and a national level.
