Description
While utilizing the government funds already in place, we will model food assistance for single-mother families by farmers and support groups, and spread the program throughout Japan. Since we have prepared a complete manual for the project, we will network government agencies, support groups, and farmers in each local government and lecture them on how to do it before starting to implement it.
Overarching commitment (for commitments submitted pre-2025)
Title
food support to single parents
Description
In order to prevent undernourishment and loss of access to food for mothers, children and their families, farmers will send fresh food directly to the farmers and support groups will provide counseling and other assistance. due to COVID-19, farmers are unable to market their food and have an overabundance of vegetables. Little Ones is the first organization in Japan to use government subsidies to purchase vegetables that are in the market, freeze them to keep them fresh, and deliver them to families in need.
