Support young changemakers in India

Dear benefactor of Access Agriculture’s young changemakers,

Season's greetings! As the year comes to a close and we celebrate this festive season, we are filled with gratitude for your generous contributions to Access Agriculture campaign “Support young changemakers in India” on the GlobalGiving platform.

Your incredible generosity has come as a blessing and a beacon of hope for our young women Entrepreneurs for Rural Access (ERAs) who are from underprivileged background. It has opened doors and provided them with invaluable opportunities, as can be seen from some of the recent examples:

• The organisation associated with one of the woman-led entrepreneurs has become a leading producer and supplier of organic millet varieties in Andhra Pradesh state, India. The entrepreneur team is dedicated to promoting sustainable farming practices through the use of digital skills and tools acquired by the team thanks to your generous support.
• Another entrepreneur team in Andhra Pradesh has been doing extensive training on small-scale mushroom production in the indigenous tribal community and has helped the rural youth and women to set up 120 mushroom production enterprises.
• The new entrepreneur team in Madhya Pradesh state in India, launched through your support, is focusing on the training of farmers in bio-fertiliser production. The team is already providing e-advisory services to various programmes related to agriculture and health.

Thank you for being the driving force of the entrepreneurial journey of these young changemakers, who are helping scale ecological farming in India using video.

Wishing you a joyous holiday season and a prosperous New Year!

With gratitude,
