One Acre Fund
Organization Description
Most of the world’s poor are farmers, representing the
largest and most uniform group of poor people in the
world. One Acre Fund is a start-up NGO in Kenya,
Rwanda, Burundi, and Tanzania that is innovating
a new way of helping farm families to achieve their
full potential. Instead of giving handouts, One Acre
invests in farmers to generate a permanent gain in farm
income. We provide farmers with a “market bundle”
that includes education, finance, seed and fertilizer,
and market access. Our program is proven impactful
– every year, we weigh thousands of harvests and
measure more than 100% average gain in farm income
per acre. We have laser-like focus on generating better
lives for the people that we serve.
We are growing quickly. In eight years, we have grown
to serve 180,000 farm families with more than 2,000
full-time field staff. In three more years, we will at least
quadruple in size, while adding several new countries.
Our approach has won widespread validation, winning
grants from the highly competitive Echoing Green and
Skoll Foundations, and the global Financial Times/
IFC award for “basic needs financing” in 2010 and
2011.
