It sounds like something straight out of the Old Testament — swarms of locusts are literally devouring the crops of millions of people across East Africa. Kenya, one of the five countries affected, is experiencing the worst infestation in 70 years.

Because of these locusts people already experiencing food insecurity are now in greater need of assistance. That is why your help is urgently needed to provide meals for people who are suffering in the areas we serve.

Our partner in South Sudan holds a huge locust in his hand, and the locusts flying in the sky above him resemble small birds. He writes:

“The attack is so severe this evening by locusts. The villagers are fighting back to protect their crops ... We should pray so that this destructive force may go back to the desert where it came from!”

For just 13¢ a meal, you can provide immediate food assistance for the most vulnerable. That means your gift of $26 will provide 200 meals to people facing food insecurity.
Some astounding facts about the devastating impact of locusts:
* A locust swarm that enters a field in the morning can eat the entire field by midday.
* In just one day, a swarm of locusts the size of Paris could eat the same amount of food as half the population of France.
* Each adult insect can eat its own weight in food daily and can travel up to 93 miles in a day.


A statement released by the U.N. reports, “This is a scourge of biblical proportions. Yet as ancient as this scourge is, its scale today is unprecedented in modern times.” The statement goes on to say the invasion is “a graphic and shocking reminder” of the region’s vulnerability.

Your generous gift will provide meals for children and families not only in the areas affected by this crisis but also for people in other tough places as urgent needs arise. Because Unto™ is the humanitarian ministry of Cru^®, every meal given becomes an opportunity to share the eternal hope of Jesus!

Would you consider giving generously to rush meals to hungry people in east Africa and other tough places?
