In the heart of southwest Morocco, a powerful group of 44 women are uniting to fight against the devastation caused by seven years of unrelenting drought. They are part of the TADLA Women’s Agricultural Cooperative, a 100% female-driven initiative working tirelessly to rebuild their community and ensure a sustainable future.
However, they need your help. The effects of climate change and the loss of natural resources are threatening their livelihoods, their families, and their way of life. The land is suffering. The livestock that support their families are dwindling. Without immediate support, this vital community will be lost.
But here’s where you come in: with your support, we can create a lasting impact that will empower these women, protect the environment, and secure a better future for generations to come.

THE TADLA WOMEN'S AGRICULTURAL COOPERATIVE: A STORY OF RESILIENCE

Founded in 2017, the TADLA Women's Agricultural Cooperative was created to empower women in the community, particularly in the face of economic hardship and environmental challenges. Today, we stand united as 44 women 55% of whom are young women aged 24-35 working together to breed and market local livestock and poultry while promoting the rich agricultural products of the Souss region.
Our members are mothers, daughters, and leaders, with dreams of prosperity and stability for their families. Despite these women’s incredible dedication, they face a harsh reality: the land that once supported them is now plagued by desertification, and the livestock feed they rely on is dwindling.

THE PROBLEM WE FACE: CLIMATE CHANGE, DROUGHT, AND DESERTIFICATION

The region is facing catastrophic challenges. The once-thriving argan forests are shrinking, impacted by years of climate change, rapid urbanization, and overgrazing. This has resulted in advancing desertification, a threat that not only endangers the environment but also the very livelihoods of the local population, particularly our women farmers and breeders. 
While we continue to battle these environmental challenges, the livestock sector remains our lifeblood. It is our primary source of income and provides food security for families. Without support, however, the long-term survival of our community is at risk.

OUR SOLUTION: A SUSTAINABLE LIVESTOCK FEED PRODUCTION PROJECT

We have a vision a vision of empowerment, sustainability, and resilience. Our project is simple yet powerful: we aim to develop a self-sustaining livestock feed production system that will reduce our dependence on the dwindling natural resources of the region and give our livestock a steady, sustainable source of feed

WE’RE ASKING FOR YOUR HELP TO MAKE THIS VISION A REALITY

How Your Support Will Make a Difference
Your donation will directly fund four key activities that will enable us to create a sustainable and resilient future for the TADLA Women’s Agricultural Cooperative:
Development of the Premises – $20,000 
Our first priority is to establish a solid foundation for the project. We need to build a safe, efficient, and sustainable facility where we can produce high-quality livestock feed. This building will serve as the operational hub, providing jobs for the local women and creating a sense of stability in the region.
Purchase of Machines – $50,000
To create high-quality feed, we need modern, energy-efficient machines. These machines will allow us to process locally sourced ingredients like cereals, carob, cactus, and argan derivatives into nutritious, eco-friendly livestock feed. The feed produced will not only support our livestock but also help us reduce the environmental impact on the land.
Connecting the Factory to the Electrical Network – $12,000
A sustainable energy source is vital for the longevity of the factory. Connecting the factory to the electrical network will ensure a reliable, continuous power supply for production, helping us keep costs low and operations running smoothly.
Operating Budget – $28,000
Once the facility is up and running, we’ll need an operating budget to cover raw materials, labor, and overhead costs for the first year. This will ensure that the factory remains fully operational and able to meet the growing demand for sustainable livestock feed
Total Goal: $110,000
