September Fellows Update

Echoing Green's Strategy Associate, Leslie Liao, recently returned from a two-week vacation to East Africa. While there, she had the opportunity to visit three recent fellows and took some beautiful photos (including this one from The One Acre Fund). Andrew Youn, founder of The Once Acre Fund and a 2006 fellow, wrote in with this update:

"Recently, one farmer was so grateful at her bumper harvest that she wanted to give me 100 pounds of her maize grains, enough to feed her family for a month."
