Self Sustaining Solutions

Run by Filipinos - For Filipinos - Funded by Filipinos

Long term change for the poor must come from within the Philippines and not from an endless steam of US donations.  To this end we are working to make each of our programs in-country financially self-supporting so that your donations can fuel infrastructure and growth.

Learning and Gardening Centers

Learning and Gardening Centers are the heart of Rise and Rebuild operations.  These Centers...

> Produce an abundance of nutritious food feeding thousands of malnourished children each week day.
> Create living wage jobs for the poor dramatically improving job skills, income and happiness.
> Train employees and local residents in technical, vocational and self-reliance principles and skills.
LEARN MORE


Our community based Learning and Gardening Centers are revenue neutral, producing the food required for our nutrition and education programs at below market rates.  In 2025 we will grow in excess of 350 tons of vegetables and fruit serving over 750,000 meals to children and pregnant/lactating mothers.





We are in the early stages of developing a new generation of LGCs utilizing high yield hydroponic greenhouses to dramatically increase our yield while reducing operating cost.  These LGCs will be financially self sustaining through sales to retail markets while also supporting a robust nutrition and education program.   




This new generation of LGC will only require two hectares giving us far greater access to poor communities.  Each Center will create approximately 50 jobs, provide 100,000 child lunches annually and facilitate 50,000 parent lessons each year.

Goodson Hydroponic Farms
Revenue Generating Partner

Goodson Hydroponic Farms, launched mid 2025, is an independent profit entity capable of generating profits sufficient to support a sizable portion of Rise and Rebuild's annual operating costs.  

At present, GHF is the most sophisticated greenhouse operation in the Philippines.  A sealed high tech hybrid system, we are able to manage the the greenhouse temperatures and protect plants from the harsh Philippine weather.
We focus on growing lettuce and micro greens for exclusive hotels, resorts and restaurants.  Because we grow in a controlled environment we can offer a higher quality and a consistent supply year around making us the premium brand.

Response to our produce has been overwhelming.  Currently three greenhouses are online producing 45,000 heads of lettuce each month along with an assortment of micro greens and herbs.  As we enter 2026 six greenhouses will be operational generating profits of 1 M+ to be used to support our three existing Community Learning and Gardening Centers.
