GROW Month a Success!

GROW month has officially come to an end, and we at Organics Unlimited wanted to thank you for your support! When you purchase bananas from GROW by Organics Unlimited you are helping to give communities a higher quality of life. Every week we hear so many heartwarming stories of people in the banana growing regions of Mexico and Colima who are given opportunities and chances to improve their lives that they otherwise would not have received.

Stories of how your support helped include this little boy, who had never been able to hear in his life. Thanks to a hearing aid funded by GROW, he was able to hear for the first time ever.

Other children in the banana growing communities have never been able to enjoy the holidays. Thanks to GROW, these children can enjoy a holiday party complete with food, music and gifts.

 


These are only two examples of the difference your support makes. GROW by Organics Unlimited offers scholarships, vision and dental clinics, clean water programs and more. Even though GROW month is over, we encourage you to keep promoting GROW organic bananas so that we can continue to make a difference in so many lives.
