About The Project

$915 needed to purchase seed, pay labor and to rent land
$230 contributed by Beatrace towards his project


With some of the money from an initial investment, Beatrace paid off debt. The remainder of the money went to into savings for future needs for her farming operations, like buying onion starts or pay for labor. As her farming business grows Beatrace will be able offer more employment opportunities to her community. With future investments, a longer-range project could be to raise sheep or goats.



Paying it Forward

Beatrace will pay it forward by offering employment to work on her onion farm.
