Knead to Feed Bakery

Give to Difference Makers leading the work in Africa.

Put your generosity where you can see it work. Between 75 and 90 cents of every dollar lands directly with fellow Difference Makers in under-resourced refugee communities, and you get the photos, the names, and the accounting back.

Give once, give monthly, or fund a whole program. Every gift stands behind Difference Makers running the work in their own communities.

Why give monthly

Steady giving is what keeps the work from stopping.

The hardest thing about this work isn’t starting a program. It’s keeping it running. The Peace Campaign worked for six months, then funding lapsed and the gains were put at risk. Monthly giving is what prevents that.

Join The Difference Makers and you’ll get a quarterly live call with Wendy, with updates straight from the programs, and a monthly impact story from the field. You can change or cancel anytime.

Fund a Whole Program

For a gift that takes on a project end to end.

Larger gifts can be directed to a specific project, so you can follow one piece of work from start to finish.

$2,000

Growth & expansion

Supports organizational growth and the community and team-building behind the work: the platform costs and internet bundles that let the Africa team meet, and the gatherings where they collect and upload program data.

$5,600

Run the bakery for a year

Covers operating costs, materials, ingredients, and staffing to run the Knead to Feed Bakery for a full year, about $445 a month.

$15,000

Start a bakery

Funds a new bakery from the ground up.

$20,000

Fund the Peace Campaign for a year

Keeps the Peace & Conflict Resolution Outreach to reach 4,000 people; running for a full year, the kind of gift that turns a six-month result into a lasting one.

Project gifts are arranged through a short conversation, so we can match your gift to the right work and report back on it directly.

75–90¢

of every dollar lands directly in the work

Where your dollar goes

Verified, and reported back to you.

Before your money leaves the U.S., we verify the partner on the ground, deliver the funds directly to the program leader, and report back with photographs, named leaders, and line-item accounting. Between 75 and 90 cents of every dollar lands directly in the work. The rest keeps the lights on and the books clean.

1

Verify the partner on the ground

2

Deliver funds directly to the program leader

3

Report back with photos, names, and line-item accounting

Fund a Whole Program

You gave to see the work. We’ll show you the work.

You’ll get a tax receipt and a confirmation that opens with a real story from the field, not a form letter. Over the next little while, a short welcome introduces how LMTD’s model actually works, with an invitation to join the community on Facebook, where contributors, partners, and refugee leaders share what’s happening.

If you gave once, we’ll invite you, once and warmly, to consider giving monthly. No guilt-trip emails, no three asks in a month.

Other ways to give

More ways to stand behind the work.

Most of every dollar funds work happening on the ground in Africa, run by leaders living in the communities they serve. Two programs anchor the work today, with participants in eleven countries.

Corporate sponsorship

Companies can sponsor a program and get reporting, recognition, and story rights worth bringing to a team.

The Collective

For contributors building a legacy project of their own, with mentorship from Wendy and the option to travel to the work in Africa.

Generosity you can watch work.

Give once or give monthly. Every gift is verified, accounted for, and put to use by the people closest to the need.
