Rising rents, fixed incomes, health challenges, and the loss of social supports have left more older adults without a safe place to call home. This is where Islington Seniors’ Shelter, operated by The Salvation Army, makes a difference every day.

In Malawi where a significant portion of the population experiences economic hardship, nearly 70 percent of the population live on less than $2.15 a day, and most families depend on small-scale farming plots smaller than a hectare. Droughts, soil degradation, crop disease and lack of access to improved farming practices have long left many vulnerable to hunger and poverty.

In response, The Salvation Army, in partnership with Canadian Foodgrains Bank (CFGB), is implementing a three-year sustainable agriculture and food security (SAFS) project in Malawi’s Mangochi District.
