Dear friend, Yesterday, two magnitude 6.3 earthquakes and multiple aftershocks struck western Afghanistan, causing widespread damage across the region. Mercy Corps teams have worked in Afghanistan since 1986, and in times of disaster like this one, we need all the support our global community can offer. Please send an urgent gift to our Humanitarian Response Fund to help people in Afghanistan and around the world in moments of crisis. Mercy Corps is working with partners in Afghanistan to assess needs, and we are committed to respond in the weeks and months to come, helping communities rebuild and recover. In past emergency response efforts we have provided essential resources like emergency water, sanitation, and hygiene support to communities affected by earthquakes.
