The Big Picture
The Horn of Africa is withered by drought and the people who live there are perilously hungry. More than 12 million people are at risk of starvation. The United Nations has called Somalia the "world's worst humanitarian disaster."
People in Somalia, Ethiopia, and Kenya are desperate for food and water. We're on the ground helping more than 1 million people weather the crisis.
Impact of Your Donation
Mercy Corps is focusing our efforts in villages and towns to help prevent people from fleeing in desperation to overpopulated and strained camps. In addition to providing emergency food and water, we have set up mobile health clinics and will be implementing voucher programs, allowing families to purchase goods from the market and support the local economy.
