For many around the globe, climate change is not just warmer temperatures
— it is a devastating force that is upending their way of life.

It reduces access to safe water for drinking, bathing, and everyday
household tasks. It weakens agricultural productivity, creating more
hunger. It makes communities more susceptible to natural disasters like
floods, wildfires, and extreme heat waves.

our pledge to show support for communities facing severe effects of
climate change and help create more climate-resilient communities around
the world.

Mercy Corps is working at the local level in 40+ countries to increase
access to clean water, create sustainable agricultural solutions, and
assist families in recovering from catastrophic natural disasters.


Our
global humanitarian response has helped us deliver meaningful change in
the lives of millions of people worldwide. Here are just
a few examples:


  In northeastern Nigeria, residents of Vinikang had no choice but to
travel far away to fetch water and use a hand-pushed cart to bring it
  all the way back home. Mercy Corps collaborated with local community
leaders to build a 50,000-liter water facility. Now, more than 90
households have direct access to clean water.
 
  In Nepal, a rural farming community faced extreme weather patterns
that wiped out their crops and destroyed their homes. Mercy Corps
  partnered with the community to build gabion walls and bamboo
embankments to prevent floods and landslides, as well as spring-fed
water tanks and pipes to decrease their reliance on seasonal
rainfalls.
 
  In southern Pakistan, heavy monsoon rainfall wreaked havoc in many
communities, affecting more than 33 million people, killing over 1,700
  people, and leaving hundreds of thousands without a home. Mercy Corps
worked with the local government to provide healthcare, deliver
essential supplies, ease access to clean water, and prop up temporary
shelters.


Climate change affects communities around the world in so many different
ways. But often, it is people who have contributed the least to warming
the globe that are affected the most.

Your continuous commitment to our work is critical to helping our teams
and partners be more effective in fostering stronger economies, healthier
families, and stable livelihoods around the world.
