$2,500 Raised to Offer Equitable & Sustainable Change

Health Bear Food Company has a mission. “To make the world a more sustainable and equitable planet for all living things through plant-based food”. With the help of our philanthropic advisor Johanna Mahal, Health Bear was able to facilitate a fundraising event in May 2023 that amassed in $2,500 in donations to be gifted to Opportunity International’s Agricultural Finance Fund. This gift will give 25 women and their families financial services and savings, farming support and access to fair market prices in Africa.

Panel Discussion ‘Local, National & International Women in Food’

How did we do it?! A suggested donation of $50 from each attendee was collected. The first $1,000 was matched by corporate sponsor Synopsys. At the end, $2,500 will be given to the Agricultural Finance Fund!

As we celebrate Mother’s Day, it is awe inspiring to think of the gifts we were able to give to mothers other side of the globe. Hard-working farmers will be given the chance to take their families out of extraordinary poverty into a life of prosperity and hope.

Our mission at Health Bear is coming to fruition and for that, we say THANK YOU to all who contributed during our event. If you would like to join us in contributing to Opportunity International’s Agricultural Finance Fund, follow the link below and give on our website at checkout.
