GROW HOPE PROJECT
Help us help others.
Grow Hope is our project aimed at increasing community involvement and raising more funds to feed the hungry.
grow hope 2023
Our Grow Hope farmers are committing 309 acres for the 2022. This is in addition to our traditional agri-business sponsored 133 acre field.
We have eight different fields in the Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta area. Partner with us and become a “Virtual Farmer”. We will do all the work to raise the crop and harvest it, and you don’t even have to get your hands dirty! (But we do need you to sponsor us!)
We will then sell the crop and forward the proceeds to MCC Alberta, a church member of the Canadian Foodgrains Bank (www.foodgrainsbank.ca)
Please spread the word with friends, family, and c0-workers. Help the Grow Hope movement catch fire so we can make impact more lives!
OUR 2023 GROW HOPE FARMERS
Chris Allam, Todd Clark, Shaun Galloway, Keith Goutbeck, John Gavinchuk, and Colin Jackson.
Additionally we are grateful to have Grow Hope farmers Grant Duma and family farming the Heartland Alliance Church land in Ardrossan, Alberta, our newest Grow Hope field.
Our remaining field is east of Gibbons on land donated by Suncor.
Many hands make light work. Lend us a hand!
DONATE
For $350 you can sponsor an acre and help change lives around the world.
It works like this:
You sponsor us for $350 per acre (or $150 for a half acre, or $75 for a quarter of an acre, or really any amount you want!).
Let’s say we make $1000 per acre in crop sales (Crop prices have risen dramatically!) We will send that money to CFGB and will get up to a 4:1 grant (or $4000 per acre) from the Government of Canada (please note grants to the CFGB are capped at $25 million). Your $350 donation has grown to $5000 in crop sales and grants!
Just like the crop, your donation can really grow!
Tax receipts will be issued by MCC Alberta
