Maize is a staple food in Kenya, but farm families are hard put to survive the months between harvests.
Nuru International, a nonprofit cofounded by Jake Harriman, MBA ’08, introduced the area’s farmers to crop rotation and other modern methods in late 2008 and then offered them loans for fertilizer and high-yield seeds.
This is the story of Nuru foundation, which founder and CEO Jake Harriman attended the U.S. Naval Academy and served over 7 years in the Marine Corps as an Infantry Platoon Commander and a Special Operations Platoon Commander for an elite unit called Force Recon.
using the power of Social Media, Nuru foundation is growing the awareness of their cause and gaining new sympathisers.
Beautifully executed.
