Dear John, You may have heard in the news about the deadly fighting in Sudan, but do you know what’s happening in the neighbouring Horn of Africa region? The Horn of Africa region is experiencing the longest drought on record. Scarcity of both food and water is fuelling conflict throughout the region, forcing people to move from one fragile situation to another. In Ethiopia, which already hosts close to a million refugees, we’ve partnered with the government to create two new refugee settlements to provide support for people fleeing clashes in Somalia. But, settlements like this are not sustainable without the support of people like you. By making a regular, monthly donation, you can ensure that people like 14-year-old Ikraan can rely on us for the days, weeks and months to come.
