Evode is moving to the top of his class in Rwanda thanks to Capital T for hard work, a desk lamp, and his parents’ co-operative. Evode’s parents now have tap water in their home, cows to sell, and electrical power for the lamp he uses each night to study. They also have access to loans to grow their family business.
Through CDF Canada’s project – Rwanda Co-operative Agricultural Growth – CDF Canada brought families in Rwanda together in 15 cooperative businesses to improve farming practices, find new markets and earn better prices.
In just five years, farmer co-operatives in Rwanda have
1) increased crop production and sales by 400%;
2) elected women to half of all leadership positions; and
3) greatly improved family nutrition.
