Gardens for Health International
United States of America
Enable HIV positive individuals to improve their nutrition and health through low cost sustainable agriculture practices.Worldwide malnutrition robs an estimated 170 million children of their health and their futures. Not only does chronic malnutrition contribute to poorer performance in school lower income and lower life expectancy but it can also weaken a child s ability to survive deadly diseases like malaria and pneumonia. It is a contributing factor in over one third of all early childhood deaths in sub Saharan Africa. In Rwanda a staggering 44% of children under the age of five suffer from chronic malnutrition. Emergency food aid is the most common treatment for malnutrition. While it saves lives this form of treatment cannot solve the long term health and nutritional challenges that families face. Gardens for Health International steps in where food aid stops. Our innovative approach brings agricultural support and comprehensive health education to rural health centers in regions with a high prevalence of chronic childhood malnutrition. From working one on one with families enrolled in our program to collaborating with the Rwandan Ministries of Health and Agriculture to advocate for policies and initiatives that integrate agriculture into the treatment of malnutrition we promote a model that has the potential to revolutionize the treatment of malnutrition in rural healthcare systems. We work in twenty partner health centers in Rwanda s Gasabo and Musanze Districts helping approximately 3000 new families each year to break the cycle of malnutrition in their homes and communities.

NOLA 180
United States of America
Prior to Hurricane Katrina the New Orleans public school system was considered by many experts to be the worst in the country. The high school drop out rate hovered at seventy percent and over seventy percent of eighth graders failed to demonstrate basic skills in reading writing and mathematics. As New Orleans moves to become the first all charter school system of public education in the nation there is mounting pressure to identify solutions to counter the city s pattern of educational failure. NOLA 180 aims to restructure failed public schools into high functioning charter schools that prepare all students for college. By focusing on improving existing schools instead of opening new ones the district can be reformed at scale. NOLA 180 s goal is to send over eighty percent of enrolled students to college.
