European Grocery Store Funds Sustainable Farming in Kenya

Aldi has formed a three-year partnership with charity Farm Africa to help young people grow and sell more crops.

The discounter will donate £260,000 to the charity’s Growing Futures project in Western Kenya, which educates young people in sustainable agriculture.

The donation should help 400 out-of-school young people grow and sell their produce for a “decent income” and “escape the cycle of poverty”, Aldi said.
