Poultry Innovation & Inspiration Fund

Last year, as we navigated through rocky terrain, there was no denying that our resilience was tested. With a global health crisis, joblessness and food insecurity at its highest, it has been hard to know where to turn to find peace. Through this season of uncertainty, we continue to innovate a path forward. A path for families who are struggling from loss of employment and unable to meet their basic needs like accessing food. 

You can help create longer-term solutions to address food insecurity!

On the heels of an economic collapse caused by COVID-19 - that is said to have triggered the most unequal recession in modern U.S. history - we have launched our Poultry Innovation and Inspiration Fund. This fund will provide sustainable access to food through mobile chicken coops. Families will be able to raise their own food and have the opportunity to gain economic stability by selling their own product. 

We need your support to take our Poultry Training to the next level. By donating today you will support beginning immigrant farmers with the foundation they need to provide food security to their families and the community. You will provide these farmers with training, access to land and newly-constructed mobile production coops. In addition, you will advance their economic empowerment, laying the foundation for immigrant-owned micro-enterprises that can expand.

Every donation will go directly to the Poultry Innovation and Inspiration Fund:

$75: Provides chicken wire for one mobile coop

$125: Provides pipes for one mobile coop structure

$500: Provides the tarp for one mobile coop

$1,500: Provides the frame for the mobile coop

$3,000: Provides one mobile coop for a family

The extent which the pandemic has affected minority households in our community is beyond comprehension. BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities have always faced disparities, and these can no longer be ignored. While minorities and low-income families continue to struggle to get back on their feet you can help provide a path forward by donating today. 

Thank you for your support of Sharing Our Roots!
