Fulfill Farmers’ Dreams with Project Shooting Star!
As part of its 65th-anniversary celebration, the society is launching “Project Shooting Star,” a donation drive aimed at supporting farmers in Krus na Ligas, UP Diliman. These farmers are members of the Nagkakaisang Magsasaka ng Krus na Ligas para Sa Agrikulturang Lungsod, responsible for cultivating ancestral lands passed down through four generations.
Land disputes in Krus na Ligas have led to a reduction in available farmland, creating significant challenges for the farmers. Currently, only six farmers remain active, while others have pursued different employment opportunities due to the shrinking land area. Scarce resources and limited tools have also hindered the adoption of modern farming practices.
Project Shooting Star seeks monetary donations to address the immediate needs of these farmers, including the acquisition of new farming equipment and the repair of existing tools.
