We are thrilled to announce the commencement of the LFBI AGRICULTURAL RECOVERY PROGRAM. Through this program we salvage fresh farm produce from the farms; they are sorted, and will be redistributed to the most vulnerable families in informal settlements. Our target group in this program is the very needy cases of persons that are aged, disabled, patients of diet related diseases or beneficiaries severely affected by the negative effects of cost of living crisis. Why is this program important in Nigeria —-? The agricultural landscape in Nigeria presents a complex challenge, with significant food surplus coexisting alongside widespread hunger and food insecurity . Despite being a prominent agricultural producer in the continent , the nation grapples with substantial food loss and waste across the supply chain and the entire agricultural value chain. This issue has far-reaching consequences, including economic losses, environmental degradation, and inadequate access to nourishing sustenance for a considerable portion of Nigeria’s population. In partnership with the Global Food Banking Network we are piloting this program to salvage edible crops from massive post harvest loss. To successfully implement this program, we will be engaging with : • Farmers and Producers • Government Agencies and Ministries • Food Markets and Supermarkets • Food Transport and Logistics Companies across the value chain. —————- To support any of our programs kindly make a Bank Transfer to Account Name: LAGOS FOOD BANK INITIATIVE 0463977946 - GTB 1016014957 - ZENITH BANK 1020057249 - UBA 0106793890- Union Bank 0002221706- Standard Chartered For GTB account holders you can donate using USSD CODE by dialing *737* 35 *amount* 9222 # (i.e. *737* 35 *2000* 9222 ). is #NOTALAGOSSTATEPROJECT #lagosfoodbankinitiative #sdgs #unitednations #sustainabledevelopmentgoals #socialimpact #socialresponsibility #sustainability #sdg1 #sdg2 #communitydevelopment #climateaction #lagosfoodbankintiative #charity #Africa #zerohunger #poverty #stophunger #zerohunger #charity #childhunger#ngo #agenda2030 #obamaleaders #schoolfeeding #vibrantbizng #vibrantpod
