myAgro

myAgro is an award-winning social enterprise committed to empowering small-scale farmers on every level, from self-financing to agricultural training. We are working with 115,000 farmers and counting in Mali, Senegal, & Tanzania. myAgro pioneered the use of mobile layaway as a model for savings layaway that can be adopted by other organizations to serve farmers throughout the world. Smallholder farmers across the globe make up 70% of the world's poor. Our model has been shown to double farm income and helps farmers move out of poverty. We've grown from 240 farmers in 2011 to 115,000+ in 2021 and will continue to scale over the next five years while aiming for our North Star of reaching 1 million smallholder farmers by 2026. We've received early recognition for our work by Skoll Foundation, One Acre Fund and Mulago Foundation and received prestigious awards from: Echoing Green Fellowship, Rainer Arnhold Fellows, Draper Richards Kaplan Social Entrepreneurship.
