Empowering Women Farmers to Thrive - FDlite Women Dairy Farmers Fund (#501491)

FDlite Collective: Empowering women dairy farmers to thrive. Transforming rural communities.

Join us in empowering women dairy farmers who are building a brighter future for all through community owned micro-dairy co-ops. Across rural India, millions of women farmers work tirelessly—yet struggle to earn a steady, dignified income. Despite doing most of the work in dairy farming, women rarely control the earnings or benefit fully from the value they create. FDlite is changing that. We are building a farmers-first platform that leverages technology and enables smallholder women farmers to earn more, strengthen their communities, and build a more sustainable future—one village at a time.

We are ready to scale up and your contribution provides essential resources for additional farmers to join our collective and grow—direct access to retail markets via village level dairy hubs with micro cold storage, training, veterinary care, and opportunities to grow climate-smart farms—so women farmers can thrive as entrepreneurs, support their families, and lead lasting change in their villages.

FDlite partners with women-led cooperatives to produce and deliver pure, nutritious, and authentic dairy products directly from women farmers to retail consumers—dairy that’s not just fresh, but fair.

Your support fuels economic independence, environmental stewardship, and food security—creating a future where women farmers move from subsistence to success, earning reliable incomes, building confidence, and driving community transformation.

If you share our vision for a more sustainable and inclusive food system—one where women farmers and rural communities thrive—we invite you to support FDlite Collective and be part of this growing movement.
