About The Project

Grow Hope is a partnership of the Markdale Growing Project, Canadian Foodgrains Bank, and Nazarene Compassionate Ministries Canada.

The farmer of the Markdale growing project grows the crop. NCM Canada receives funds from donors who wish to sponsor acres to cover the Grow Hope crop costs. NCM Canada reimburses the farmer and charitable receipts are provided by NCM Canada.

GROW HOPE enables more people, churches and groups to get involved in helping end hunger by sponsoring an acre before the crop is planted. Sponsor an acre or make a donation of any amount towards crop costs (seed, planting, harvesting, etc.)

This year's crop is wheat and the cost to plant, fertilize and harvest one acre is estimated at $400. When harvested, we anticipate a return of $500 per acre. Matched by the Canadian Government through the Canadian Foodgrains Bank, $500 becomes as much as $2500 to feed hungry families.

Grow your donation. Grow Hope!
