Welcome to Helen's Daughters
What Grows Together, Goes Together
We use Agriculture as an entry-point for overall development!
Helen’s Daughters works at a grassroots level providing capacity-development training, mentorship, micro-investment, access to high-value markets and a structured care-system for rural women farmers, who have largely been unacknowledged and under-supported in the agricultural sector.
On the advocacy front, the organization leverages the media and partnerships with the public and private sectors to address gender inequalities by seeking opportunities for female farmers, as well as putting food security and climate resilience in the public and policy agenda. In this way, Helen’s Daughters is positioning rural women as key actors in driving sustainable development in the Caribbean.
Education
From our home-grown agricultural training programs, scholarships, and all-girl agri-apprenticeship, we are fully invested in upskilling our girls and women.
Farmer Support
We invest in bi-annual farmer subsidies, membership discounts for medical visits to input supplies and creating market access through our FarmHers Markets.
Health & Wellness
We train our farmers on the nutritional content of what they produce, we host health clinics targeting rural communities, along with giving farmers access to medical insurance.
Advocacy
For far too long women’s roles have been untold in the agricultural sector, we aim to highlight the roles of women and redefine what it means to be a woman in this field.
