The U.S. government’s decision to drastically cut global humanitarian aid is having devastating consequences.
In crisis zones from Sudan to Palestine to Nigeria, lifesaving aid is not reaching people who are in desperate need. Lifelines are being cut as humanitarian needs are rising by the day.
As conflict, hunger, and disaster exacerbate families’ needs, more than 300 million people need assistance.
Will you make a donation today to keep aid flowing during this time of drastic cuts to U.S. aid funding?
Mercy Corps is on the ground providing essential aid to civilians where cuts to aid are causing an immediate impact — places like:
|
|
In Sudan, over 150,000 displaced people will lose access to safe drinking water while up to 40,000 severely malnourished children will not receive Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food. |
|
|
|
In Palestine, over 50,000 youth will lose access to education, mental health and wellbeing support, and skills development. |
|
|
|
In Nigeria, 60,000 people have stopped receiving food assistance while over 55,000 children under five and 11,500 pregnant women will not receive lifesaving nutritional services. |
These cuts to critical aid programs mean that children, mothers, elders, and millions of people will suffer — and may even die — without essential support.
As a global humanitarian community, we have a responsibility to show up and help meet the urgent needs of the most vulnerable in this moment.
Will you start a monthly gift today to provide critical aid for families who need it?
Sincerely,
The Mercy Corps team
