The Hive community has been such a welcoming and inspiring place - I love how it brings us all together. I feel very connected even though all of us animal advocates are scattered across the globe. I have learned so much from the community, so I want to give back so that more animal advocates can learn and connect in the future.

What is happening to Palestinians is worse than wrong. We are Christians praying for the occupation to end and peace and health to flourish. We envision olive trees thriving again and Palestinians living in their own homes in freedom to pursue an abundant life.

I'm so happy to support this organization BY Palestinians FOR Palestinians. Heartbroken, but grateful for the work you're doing.

Locally led. The last pot to boil. The last door to shut. A U.S. nonprofit (2024) focused on food, farming & survival in Gaza.

🍲 Gaza Soup Kitchen: Feeding 10,000 People Daily

As famine tightens its grip and markets collapse, Gaza Soup Kitchen is still boiling pots—feeding 1,000 people every day with dignity and determination.

We were the first soup kitchen in North Gaza to lean on local farmers and forage from nature to keep people alive. When others paused, we adapted. When supplies ran out, we improvised.

Today, we operate across 11 kitchens, run a community clinic, and deliver clean water and hot meals to hospitals—even in the hardest-hit zones.

This is survival work, done by people living through the very crisis they’re responding to.

Support the last pots still cooking.

ALLFED aims to increase the resilience of the world's food systems to global catastrophic food shocks.

The mission of Alliance to Feed the Earth in Disasters (ALLFED) is to help build resilience to global catastrophic food system failure.

ALLFED seeks to provide practical, affordable, and resilient food solutions so that, in the event of a global catastrophe, governments, industry, and communities can respond quickly and distribute food equitably, saving lives and promoting the continuation of global cooperation.

However, ALLFED currently faces a major funding gap. **We have had to scale back our programs and, without new funding, will need to continue cutting half of our budget in 2026**. This will mean continuing to significantly scale down our programs, including our research output and the ability to support governments in preparing for global food system shocks.

We focus on events, such as large volcanic eruptions, pandemics, and cyberattacks, which could deplete 5% or more of global calorie output, or access to those calories. In such events, the loss of food would likely kill far more people than the catastrophe itself directly.

“Resilient food solutions'' are what ALLFED calls the foods, technologies, and systems that could help everyone survive global catastrophic food failure. ALLFED’s ultimate goal is to feed everyone, no matter what.

2024 - 2025 : Together, let's bring the Grottoes of Vaux-le-Vicomte back to life !

**The International Friends of Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte is a charitable fund set up in February 2012. The Chateau de Vaux-le-Vicomte is one of France's most treasured institutions, celebrated for its art historical, architectural, and botanical importance and the devoted stewardship of its owners.**

**It was constructed from 1641 to 1661 for Nicolas Fouquet, the superintendent of finances for the king Louis XIV.**

**It was the first large-scale collaboration between the three major 17th-century figures in architecture, interior decoration, and landscape design: Charles Le Brun, Charles Le Brun, André Le Nôtre.**

**Owned by the de Vogüé family since 1875, each successive generation has devoted themselves to its stewardship.** 

**The Mission Statement of this fund is to bring together a devoted community of supporters, who together with the de Vogüé family, safeguard the Chateau de Vaux-le-Vicomte through the preservation of its architecture, art, and gardens and promote the chateau's legacy and profound contributions to the arts. This statement of purpose has guided the château since Count Patrice de Vogüé, opened the family home to the public in 1968.**

**Today, his three sons Alexandre, Ascanio and Jean-Charles, carry the torch.**



**Our capital campaign - *Retour aux Sources* - aims to revive the Waterworks in the Le Nôtre's garden of Vaux-le-Vicomte**

 An underground reservoir around 885 feet long collects rainwater by means of two underground gritstone water channels. The water then feeds the fountains through the force of gravity alone (Vaux is the only remaining site in France where no other energy than gravity is used). This system only allows the fountains to operate for a limited time and it is sometimes necessary to wait over a week for the reservoir to refill.

In keeping with the authenticity of the area, the objective is to operate the 22 fountains of the garden on a daily basis, without interfering with the layout or the hydraulic system designed by André Le Nôtre, modernizing only the way in which the underground reservoir is filled. By drawing water from the river and nearby sources, the water supply to the fountains will remain natural. The gravity-based circuit will work in the same way as it did in the seventeenth century, with particular attention being paid to the economical and respectful management of our primary resource: water.

 

After restoring the two basins of the *Cours d’honneur* of the château and the *Gerbe d’Eau* (for a total of us$ 1,5 millions, the next step is to restore The Grottoes.

A masterpiece designed by Louis Le Vau and André Le Nôtre, the Grottoes are the centerpiece of the gardens. Located on the main axis, they catch the eye from the south steps of the château. This grandiose setting is enhanced by a superb sculptural ensemble of eight atlas, river divinities and sandstone lions. Surrounding the Grottoes, the gushing water basins enrich this monumental setting with two *Bassins ronds* and the two *Bassins aux Grenouilles.* The whole complex rests on a retaining wall, thereby concealing an underground reservoir essential for supplying the fountains in the lower gardens. This structure of rare splendor as much as a feat of engineering is essential to the realization of our grand project *Retour aux Sources*, which aims to have all the fountains operational throughout the entire public opening season.

Between now and 2028, a number of projects will be carried out to restore the Grottoes to their former glory. A vast program, commensurate with the size of the building, is orchestrated in 3 major phases. 

**Phase 1 : The Lower Basin of the Grottoes and The Monumental Staircases**

This first stage encompasses waterproofing work on the Lower Basin of The Grottoes, masonry work to reinforce its banks and The Monumental Staircases that flank them on either side. *The Grille d’Eau*, with its 10 jets, will be refurbished to restore its aquatic spectacle.

**Global cost: us$ 1,270,000 and work will start in 2026.**

 

**Phase 2 : The Bassins Ronds and Bassins aux Grenouilles**

The second stage will focus on the work on the *Bassins aux Grenouilles* and *Bassins Ronds* (masonry, landscaping and water jet fittings), with particular attention to the preservation of historic materials.

**Global cost: us$ 1,210,000 and work will start in 2027.**

 

**Phase 3 : The Grottoes retaining wall**

Restoration of its concretions, its gigantic atlas sculptures and the hydraulic system, all to ensure the proper functioning of the fountains and the visual harmony of the site.

**Global cost: us$ 1,210,000 and work will start in 2027.**



***Dear Friends,***

***More than ever, your support is key to restoring this masterpiece and safeguarding the future of our Retour aux Sources project.***

***Of course all donations are welcome and will contribute to make this project happen.***

***I personally express my sincere and warmest gratitude for your support!***

With 2,000+ members, a network of 47 community gardens, planting food and practicing resilience for our collective future. 

Founded in 1998, the **Los Angeles Community Garden Council (LACGC)** was established to create safe, green spaces in underserved urban neighborhoods. Over the past two decades, LACGC has transformed vacant lots into thriving community gardens, fostering food security, social connections, and environmental stewardship. Today, LACGC oversees a decentralized **network of 47 community gardens** with more than 2,000 members serving about 6,000 people across Los Angeles County.

In 2024, with a new executive director, LACGC shifted from a "hub-and-spoke" model to a **decentralized, peer-to-peer network**, where gardens function as "living laboratories." Each garden is in many ways an experimental space for testing different approaches to self-governance, food production, and community resilience. This new model allows for greater innovation and flexibility while maintaining a collective framework for learning and resource-sharing across the network.

**Living Laboratories: Gardens as Experimental Hubs**

Each garden operates as a **living laboratory**, experimenting with governance models, sustainability practices, and community-driven solutions. Some gardens prioritize food production, while others focus on becoming resiliency hubs with initiatives like **cool zones** to mitigate heat or water capture systems for sustainability. This decentralized framework empowers gardens to address the unique needs of their communities while contributing to larger, systemic goals like climate resilience and social equity.

Msomi Academy partners with Kenyans to educate children so they can improve their lives and the lives of their communities. 

Our mission is to partner with communities to build educational experiences that improve quality of life, empower leaders, foster collaborative relationships, and encourage reciprocal learning. Benya Msomi Academy in Kisii, Kenya, provides a safe haven for primary school children (ages 4-14) who are orphaned and/or have dangerous situations at home through boarding facilities that are not generally offered at the primary school level. The approximately 400 students who attend Benya Msomi Academy get a lunch meal every day (not offered at every school) and the young ones are now receiving breakfast as well. Msomi is also working with a Maasai community in the Kajiado area to dig a well so that the women and girls no longer have to walk 20 miles round trip every day to fetch water. This will save them significant time and allow them to engage in on-site education so they can work to improve their community's quality of life.

Provides access to fresh produce from local farms and nutrition education to food-insecure people living in and around Ithaca, NY.

**Food & Health Equity** 

Since 2006, Healthy Food For All (HFFA) has been making fresh, quality produce accessible to low-income households and promoting the viability of local farms through Community Supported Agriculture (CSA).

HFFA provides sustenance and stability for over **1,500 youth and adults** struggling with hunger while fairly compensating local farmers producing the diversity of fruits and vegetables that provide a cornerstone to good health. 

**Farm Viability** 

By investing over **$200,000** annually in local organic farms, HFFA is helping to keep small diversified farms in business, in-turn increasing our community's capacity to sustainably grow healthy food for everyone. The whole community benefits from local abundance, farm resiliency and food security. And, as our farms grow more, they share more—in 2021, HFFA farms provided over 150,000 pounds of fresh fruits and veggies at half price for low-income community members, and donated an additional 30,000 pounds valued at over $55,000 for neighbors in need.

**Environmental Sustainability**

HFFA’s farms use organic, biodynamic and regenerative practices. These techniques support soil health, protect and improve water quality, help draw down greenhouse gases and restore ecosystems while nurturing fertility and fortifying the harvest—even as pests and extreme weather conditions intensify. HFFA farms are working on our behalf to **combat climate change,** **feed our community and heal our planet.**
