Bella and her family in Chippewas of Nawash Uncede Bella and her family in Chippewas of Nawash Unceded First Nation were able to grow their own food to help supplement their diets during the pandemic because of the #BestGiftEver of gardens, which was supplied to them thanks to kind donors. Bella, when schools were open, participated in the land-based education program where she learned gardening skills. But when the pandemic hit and lockdowns occurred, Bella and her family received the #BestGiftEver of a family food box full of nutritious foods, as well as a starter kit with seeds, gardening tools and planter bags. Bella was able to put her gardening skills to good use and help her Dad plant a garden, right in their own backyard.

Traditions help us feel connected to each other, a Traditions help us feel connected to each other, and for Viviana in Bolivia, it’s important that she passes on them to her children. Viviana recently began growing fruits and vegetables in her new family garden, a life-changing opportunity made possible through CFTC donor support.
.
.
Now that she can grow her own food, she’s been preparing delicious traditional family recipes for her children, including salads, tortillas made from chard, carrot, turnip and onions, accompanied by khat’i potato and topped off with llajua, a Bolivian hot sauce. 
.
.
Viviana sells some of her produce at the market to earn extra income, and hopes to expand her garden to sell more in the future. She’s also learned about urban agriculture and producing baked goods to sell. “I am happy to have my garden. I want to acquire even more knowledge about preparing healthy and nutritious meals.”
It’s not just a goat - it’s a life-changer. Fo It’s not just a goat - it’s a life-changer. For Faridah and her grandmother Aisha in Uganda, their goats meant that they did not have to go hungry when Aisha’s other income streams dried up because of the pandemic. A handicrafts artisan by trade, Aisha was finding their household income to be dwindling as art and craft stores were closed. But Aisha's family had received the #BestGiftEver of a goat from another CFTC-supported household, which was a great source of income as Aisha sold one of her goats to support the family and provide them with food. Visit bestgiftever.ca for more life-changing gifts like the gift of a goat.
Luz, a nine-year-old girl in Bolivia, misses her c Luz, a nine-year-old girl in Bolivia, misses her classmates and school since she's been at home because of COVID-19.

But thanks to the #BestGiftEver of a family food box, Luz and her family have enough nutritious foods to eat and don't have to worry about their next meals. Kind donors helped provide Luz's mother with a food box full of nutritious food that have helped to supplement their income.
