Charity
FARM-Africa is a different kind of charity working to end hunger and bring prosperity to rural Africa. For too long, Africa has struggled with the problems of hunger and poverty. Again and again, images of famine have challenged the world to end this human tragedy, but still it happens. Today, with climate change to deal with too, the need is more urgent than ever. FARM-Africa is helping Africa’s farmers to end this cycle of despair. We’re there, on the ground, ensuring farmers have the equipment and know how to manage their land more effectively Working shoulder to shoulder with farmers, we help the best farming techniques take root and spread so there’s food not just this harvest, but every harvest We bridge communities, governments and businesses so that farmers can not only grow food but also sell it too, so that African farmers can take charge of their future and build better lives.

NFU Africa 100 Appeal
In September this year members of the NFU will be taking part in the Africa 100 Kilimanjaro climb, scaling the world's tallest freestanding mountain.
We are doing this in support of Farm Africa, a different kind of charity working to end hunger and bring prosperity to rural Africa. For too long, Africa has struggled with the problems of hunger and poverty. Again and again, images of famine have challenged the world to end this human tragedy – but still it happens. Today, with climate change to deal with too, the need is more urgent than ever
