Global Roots The locally managed “food security” programs of Global
Roots are fast becoming the talk of the aid-giving world! Why is our little charity so hot?

Working with local humanitarians to create Children's Gardens across the globe, Global Roots brings both physical and emotional care to the world’s most desperate children. It’s simple: all of our projects
are managed locally with intense local and external oversight —
and this has led to success in parts of the world where food aid
and assistance is usually swallowed up by corrupt government
officials and cash-starved aid workers. Global Roots is known for locally grown vegetable gardens
and chicken egg farms that source school lunch programs and community meal programs in global hot spots where most parents will send their children to school only if they can get a meal there. Bringing nutrition to children in unstable places is only part of
what we do. Our gardens also provide tranquil atmospheres for
children to play, learn and grow. Our newest program in the USA — The Greenhouse Social —
uses school-based greenhouses to tackle the greatest problems
faced by American children in the modern age: bullying/social
exclusion at school, abandonment/isolation at home and a
profound over-reliance on fast food for nutrition.

There is no such thing as a politically correct child.

There are no children we are allowed to care about, and others whose suffering we are supposed to ignore.

There are only children.

Ms. Rachel has faced enormous criticism for speaking up for the children of Gaza. But she continues to do it because caring about children should never stop at a border.

At Global Roots, we believe the same thing.

Every child deserves safety.

Every child deserves an education.

Every child deserves the chance to laugh, learn, dream, and grow up.

Caring about children isn’t political.

It’s human.

We’re expanding our efforts into helping the children in Gaza! More information coming soon…

What can just $25 become?

Food for the month.

Clothing she needs.

A little more security in an uncertain world.

And one powerful message to a girl in Afghanistan:

There are incredible helpers in this world, and one of them is amazing enough to help me.

That is what it means to be a Root Builder with Global Roots.

Some days, the news can make the world feel frightening, cruel, and far beyond our control.

Mr. Rogers reminded us to look for the helpers.

But you can do more than look!

You can become the reason just one girl feels supported. The reason she stays in school. The reason her future holds possibilities that weren’t there before.

You may not be able to fix everything happening in the world.

But together, we can make something better happen for someone.

And you can be one of the incredible helpers.
