Provide food security for vulnerable kids.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

An unprecedented number of people in East Africa are threatened by hunger and starvation \u2014 a growing crisis fueled by regional conflicts, sharply rising costs, extreme weather events, and the social and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

With famine looming in parts of East Africa, tens of thousands of children could starve to death because of food and water shortages. Record-high levels of hunger are being driven in large part by entrenched conflict and the cumulative impact of extreme weather events including historic, back-to-back droughts, locust swarms, and landscape-changing floods.<\/p>\n

Your gift will help save precious lives in places across East Africa where people are most vulnerable. And because of grant funds,\u202fyour donation will have 5 times the impact\u202fto provide emergency food, clean water, access to medical care, and more. You can be the answer to prayer for children and families faced with life-threatening food insecurity.<\/p>\n

To make an even bigger, ongoing impact, you can sponsor a child from\u202f Kenya<\/a>\u202f or\u202f Ethiopia<\/a>. Show God\u2019s love to a child in need as you empower them and their entire community with the resources to overcome hunger and poverty \u2014 and create an environment where children can thrive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
