MISSION - WHAT WE DO

World Hunger Team seeks to improve the health and well-being of people in poverty by enabling access to organic and sustainable nutrition and safe, clean drinking water.

VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

Through low-cost and easily-distributed growing systems, we seek to dramatically DECREASE the number of starving and clean water-deprived people in Africa. Simultaneously, we seek to dramatically INCREASE the number of locations in Africa that are able to easily grow food as well as collect, clean and store large quantities of rainwater.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Grow Bags for Starving Ugandan Villages UGANDAN VILLAGERS ARE STARVING. World Hunger Team is making a difference. We help villages grow their own food. We give them a “Grow Kit.” It has plant bags. It has non-GMO seeds. It has all-natural mineral nutrients. It is a tested & proven SYSTEM. It starts producing food in just 4 weeks. It keeps growing year-round. The people eat fresh greens + veggies. Their diet improves. Their nutrition improves. Their health improves. They smile. How much simpler could it be? World Hunger Team currently supports two orphanage / farms in Eastern Uganda. They are very remote villages in the primarily jungle area. The leaders of these organizations are Ambassadors for WHT. They will personally be delivering the “Grow Bag” kits to villages throughout their area. FEED 10 PEOPLE - $100 Grow Bags: 5 – 45 Gallon 3 – 100- Gallon 2 – 200-Gallon + Seed starter trays, nutrients, seeds & tools FEED 25 PEOPLE - $250 FEED 50 PEOPLE - $500 Indoor Organic Food Growing Tent for Food Pantries GROW TENT. This is an indoor hydroponic growing tent designed for the specific purpose of growing greens and small-bush vegetables. It has a very small “footprint” of just 40” wide by 40” deep, by 80” tall. It uses non-circulating hydroponics (Kratky Method) to grow crops in standing (non-aerated) water. The crops are “fed” with water-soluble all-mineral nutrients, resulting in 100% organic crops. One tent grows up to 108 small plants simultaneously (fewer when growing large-leaf greens or small-bush tomatoes, peppers, etc.) Our Grow Tent is ideal for growing a wide range of leafy crops including lettuce, spinach, kale, Swiss Chard, arugula and more. It also makes it extremely easy to grow your own fresh herbs such as basil, chives, oregano, parsley, dill, lavender and more. We believe this system will be embraced by K-12 schools, as well as church groups - particularly seniors - to grow food to feed the needy, sell after Sunday service, or cook for meals-on-wheels programs. "Tower of Life" Rainwater Collection + Food Growing Unit The two greatest needs of humanity at this time are food and water. Millions worldwide die from starvation, and millions more die from drinking unclean water. The World Hunger Team “Tower of Life” seeks to change these outcomes dramatically. FOOD: Our unit has 70 linear feet of growing trays, drip-irrigated using mineral nutrients to produce 100% organic food. WATER: Our unit is a rainwater collection, sterilization and storage system that captures, cleans and stores up to 1,360 gallons of water. Because our initial target market is rural Africa, we have designed the unit to ship flat as a shrink-wrapped pallet. Drones can be used to deliver the unit to places where roads do not exist. Our unit can be set up easily by unskilled workers. All tools needed are included. No electricity is needed, as all components are powered by solar panels. The unit will start producing food within 30 days of installation. Provisional patent 9/2021. Final patent application in progress.
