We are thankful to present our ministry partner, Helping Kids Round First, with this impactful gift for 2026 from our Multiply Hope Initiative - International.
This grant directly supports Farming and Hen & Egg Projects, worked in partnership with the Nicaraguan Lutheran Church, initiatives designed to help rural Nicaraguan families overcome food insecurity and economic instability.
The farming component provides global farming kits, which include seeds, tools, fertilizer, and technical support, enabling families and collectives to plant up to three agricultural cycles over the course of one year. This not only ensures consistent access to food but also empowers families to create seed banks for future harvests and earn income by selling surplus crops.
The Hen & Egg Project introduces a sustainable protein and micro-enterprise solution by providing families with laying hens and 12 months of feed. This component is designed to improve nutrition at the household level, especially for children, while offering a steady stream of eggs that can be consumed or sold locally to generate income.
A special thank you to the Ty Eschenbaum Foundation for providing matching funds to Helping Kids Round First. What a blessing to partner in this important work together!
We give glory to God and are thankful for the incredible work of our friends and partners at Helping Kids Round First!
