Food Security & Livelihoods

HELLO identifies critical needs and responds in a timely manner by supporting bakeries and distributing food baskets to displaced and vulnerable families. HELLO organizes these either directly through implementation or indirectly through a voucher system. HELLO contracts food suppliers/stores that accept vouchers as a method of payment from families that are supported by HELLO’s voucher program.

Within development, HELLO supports agricultural projects. Farmers are trained on agricultural best practices and are equipped with farming equipment. HELLO also supports livestock breeders by providing livestock, fodder (and other necessary items), medicine and livestock-specific technical training. At the family level, HELLO supports food production by women-led families (breadwinners). At the community level, HELLO restores ovens and renovates food facilities through the “Cash for Work” program, targeting the most vulnerable populations within the community for Humanitarian Support
