In 2020, the United Nations reported nearly one in three people in the world did not have access to enough food, and since then Covid-19 pandemic has intensified the vulnerabilities in our food systems. Effects to health care, inflation, access, and situations of conflict and drought have all made it harder for people to have enough to eat.
Through Grow Hope, you are helping us get one step closer to a world without hunger.
Join us
You can join our community of local growers by sponsoring an acre! Is a $350 acre more or less than you can give? We encourage giving multiple or partial acres too. Give to Grow Hope now!
Or start an online giving project and invite others to sponsor acres with you! By setting up a Giving Registry on MCC’s website, you can share a unique giving page so that others can donate to Grow Hope with you, and we can track your support. Check out our instructions to start today, or contact us at 204-261-6381 or GrowHope@mccmb.ca for help.

How your support can Grow Hope
When you join our Grow Hope community, you’ll be helping to transform the lives of people like Chim Yean and his wife, Reach Koeun, in Cambodia.
“Before I worked so hard, like working in the rice field for somebody or borrowing money or doing whatever for other people to get money and to buy the vegetable, fish and chicken. Now I grow everything.” –Reach Koeun
Through the gifts of Grow Hope supporters, Chim and Reach have daily income and food to share. Watch this video to see the impacts for yourself, or read more about other farmers like them, and how this community works together for the benefit of all farmers.
