The Farmer Support Fund: where things stand

A farmer spends money long before a harvest brings any in. Seed, soil preparation, labour and water all have to be paid for months before there is anything to sell. When a family has no cushion, that gap is where the debt begins.

The Farmer Support Fund exists to stand in that gap. Fifty farming households have been identified as potential participants. The initial goal is ₹15,00,000.

An honest status

Support has not started yet. It begins after funding is secured and each household's needs are assessed in person — because one farmer may need seed while another needs labour or repair to a borewell. The fund is pooled, and support is matched to assessed need rather than handed out as an identical kit.

We publish this status because we would rather you trust us slowly than be surprised later. When support begins, the spending will be published on our transparency pages the same way our completed work is.

How to take part

Any amount joins the same fund — the campaign page starts at ₹99. Every confirmed donation receives an acknowledgement email with a reference number and a downloadable receipt.

Questions about this

Has support to farmers already started?

No. Fifty households have been identified, and support begins after the fund is secured and individual needs are assessed in person.

Does ₹99 buy a seed kit for one farmer?

No. Every amount joins one pooled Farmer Support Fund. Support is matched to each household's assessed need — seed, soil inputs, labour or guidance — rather than a fixed kit per donation.

Reading is one way to help. Giving is another.

A single donation keeps this work moving; a monthly one lets a family — and us — plan.
