Two ways you can help

Pray for children and families affected by this severe drought and the resulting food crisis. Pray that aid organizations would be able to help those who need it most.

Make a one-time gift to our Horn of Africa Food Crisis Fund. Your donation will multiply five times to help provide emergency food, healthcare, and other critical assistance to this suffering part of the world.
