Agent Charitable Fund
The Michigan Farm Bureau Agent Charitable Fund (ACF) is a donor advised fund within the Michigan Foundation for Agriculture (MFA) with a mission of ending hunger in Michigan. Following the purpose and vision of the MFA, the fund grants monies to provide food, build agriculture awareness, educate and help citizens throughout the state.
In Michigan, 1,177,820 people are facing hunger - and 282,320 are children. The ACF is committed to serving Michigan families and creating great learning environments for kids in schools. When children are hungry and worried about where their next meal might come from, they can’t learn. When children are facing food insecurity, they can never unleash the power of their dreams and ignite their full potential.
