Overview

One Egg per Day Nutrition Rescue

Connecting Rural Families with Existing Agricultural EnterpriseProviding Web Enabled Financial Services Teaching Faith Based Ethical Business Practices
Families receive chickens, pork and eggs in exchange for their labor as members of cooperatives that expand the "wean to consumer" productivity of existing local swine producers.

HFTH provides technology, training and consulting services teaching the cooperatives how to develop meaningful business relationships that expand local swine production.

Debit-card e-banking, task management, customer resource management, real time transactional accounting with web accessible financial statements are being developed.

This service is referred to as "Help for the Hungry Financial Services."

 

Ethical business practices including basic accounting and contract management are taught from a biblical perspective by enlisting missionaries and pastors from local churches who act as "Coordinating Agencies",

What do the hungry people in the developing world need more than food?

A way to feed themselves;

A way to provide for themselves.

What do they have?

Time,

Muscle power,

and

a drive to take care of their own.

 

Family,

Community,

and

Hunger (which is an asset if it motivates a person to work, but not if it enervates or kills them).

 

What don't  they have?

Money or other assets,

Sophisticated job skills

 

 

A Backyard Agriculture Project

gives hungry people what they need:  an opportunity to provide for themselves,

while asking of them what they do have,

and not requiring of them what they don't.

Help for the Hungry is a nutrition rescue program focused on rural communities experiencing severe economic difficulties.

Advanced agricultural techniques already employed by existing businesses are made available to rural villagers via contractual relationships encouraged by the HFTH organization.

Sophisticated web based communication technologies are applied to previously difficult to solve issues.
