Angelina's Journey to Thriving Harvests

By Ernestina Esinam Glikpo | Communications Manager

 Angelina used to face daily struggles as a groundnut farmer in the Ullo traditional area in Ghana’s Upper West Region. With little money for seeds and fertilizers, her harvests became small, and feeding her family felt like an uphill battle. She worked hard, but with limited resources, making ends meet seemed impossible.

That all changed when she connected with Self-Help International.

Through Self-Help, Angelina received the essential support she desperately needed—an acre of land, quality seeds, fertilizers, and financial assistance. Armed with these resources, she was able to expand her farm from just 1 acre to an impressive 7 acres. Today, she not only grows groundnuts but also soybeans and maize, producing more food than she ever thought possible.

The impact on her family has been life-changing. Each harvest, Angelina now has enough crops to sell at the market, providing a steady income for her household. What’s more, she sets aside enough food to ensure her family never goes hungry.

“Thanks to Self-Help International, my small farm has become more than just a plot of land—it’s a source of security and a beacon of hope for the future. I no longer worry about the provision of my children.” Angelina shared.  Instead, she’s building a better life for them through her yield increase.

Your support makes stories like Angelina’s possible. With your help, more farmers like her can receive the resources they need to transform their lives and create lasting change for their families.
