Dear john,
Earlier this week we shared an update about our crisis relief efforts in
countries that are most at risk during COVID-19, including Somalia,
Yemen and Haiti. In these countries, lives may be saved from COVID-19
only to be lost to the worsening hunger crisis. Can you help provide
emergency meals and assistance to affected communities during this time
of urgent need ?
DONATE
Gratefully, Barry Mattson CEO, Rise Against Hunger

Dear john,
Yemen, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Afghanistan, Venezuela,
Ethiopia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Somalia, Nigeria, Haiti.
COVID-19 has impacted every aspect of our daily lives, but in the
countries listed here, the global health crisis presents an unimaginable
threat . In these countries, lives may be saved from COVID-19 only to be
lost to hunger. The world is facing the possibility of famines of
"biblical proportions," and the number of people living in a food crisis
has never been higher*.
Conflict, extreme weather patterns and economic blows are contributing
to the worsening food crisis. In many of these countries at extreme
risk, Rise Against Hunger is playing a key role in meeting the immediate
needs of 500,000+ people. Will you join us ? Here are some of the ways
we're responding with our in-country partners.

to work hand-in-hand with our global network of partners and Hunger
Champions to reach those in crisis. Our response to COVID-19 will be a
marathon, not a sprint, and we need you by our side .
Will you give now to support our efforts to reach populations in crisis
