The effects of climate change are taking a heavy toll on the Horn of Africa. Severe floods in Kenya have swept away thousands of homes and cars, leaving families displaced, crops destroyed, and children exposed to preventable diseases. Meanwhile, Somalia and Ethiopia are experiencing unprecedented levels of hunger due to a recent drought.
Will you sign our pledge to support families in the Horn of Africa and ensure they can recover from extreme weather and severe hunger?
Across the Horn of Africa, more than 36 million people are facing the worst hunger they’ve ever experienced due to a severe and prolonged drought season that started in 2020. Now, recent rainfall has brought new challenges due to extreme floods. The devastating impacts are staggering.
Climate change is devastating communities across the Horn of Africa. For people who are experiencing severe hunger or who have been displaced due to conflict and natural disasters, Mercy Corps is bringing immediate assistance to help them survive and recover.
Your commitment to our work at Mercy Corps is vital, and it allows us to have all the resources needed to effectively provide food assistance and shelter for displaced families while helping to build climate-resilient communities in Kenya, Ethiopia, and Somalia.
Sign our pledge to support families facing severe hunger in the Horn of Africa due to the extreme conditions of climate change.
Best,
The Mercy Corps team
