Farmer money pot
Support the agricultural cause on Leetchi
What is a farmer support money pot?
After a hurricane, storm, or other natural disaster, funds are collected to help those affected, including farmers. While there are several ways to raise money to support them, the online money pot has become the go-to solution year after year.
The online money pot is the fastest and safest way to collect money as a group to support farmers when they're going through tough times, or simply when they want to carry out projects related to their farm (for example, renovation work).
Indeed, a money pot can be useful for supporting farmers facing financial difficulties, promoting sustainable agriculture, or environmentally friendly farms. Since Leetchi was created, thousands of money pots have already helped save and support French farmers.
Who are the collected funds intended for?
Money pots are a great way to help those in need, especially in the agricultural sector. Many farmers face hardship after a crisis or natural disaster, and they need support to keep their farms running and provide for their families.
The funds collected go towards all kinds of farms—from small family farms and large agricultural structures to permaculture and traditional farms. They also support various agricultural professions like farm owners, arboriculturists, and livestock breeders. On Leetchi, the beneficiaries are most often farmers facing financial insecurity who need funding to develop their operations, or industry professionals dealing with economic, health, or climate-related issues.
Take Thomas and Sophie, farmers in Brittany. After Hurricane Ciaran, their organic market garden farm was destroyed. Thanks to the power of collective generosity, they raised enough donations to buy equipment and rebuild their family farm.
How will the money raised be used?
The majority of donations collected provide farmers with material and financial support. This includes, for example, farmers who need to:
● Purchase raw materials when the economic situation is difficult.
● Finance the acquisition of new equipment when they want to start a new activity.
● Feed their animals when costs are too high.
● Pay their bills when their farm is in difficulty.
● Provide for their families' essential needs when they can no longer cope.
● Rebuild their farms when they've been hit by a natural disaster.
● Bounce back after an economic crisis to restart their activities.
● Invest in new, more sustainable projects to diversify their farms.
