The Waterloo Harvest of Hope FRB Growing Project is a community
initiative to help end hunger overseas by supporting communities in
Central America and Africa to grow their own food.
A collaboration between local church congregations, businesses and
farmers, the Waterloo Harvest of Hope FRB Growing Project raises funds
that are sent to Central America and Africa through the Foods Resource
Bank (FRB) network.
As a Christian response to world hunger, Foods Resource Bank links the
grassroots energy and commitment of the U.S. agricultural community with
the capability and desire of small farmers in developing countries to grow
lasting solutions to hunger.
