I’m in Sudan where the primary driver of hunger is conflict. I’ve witnessed sheer suffering as people endure malnutrition and famine conditions due to increased violence by armed groups.

Right now, the latest Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) report suggests that hunger will worsen in 2026 as food stocks run out and fighting continues.

You don’t have to wait until Giving Tuesday to give — you can reach families who need it most and make a powerful difference in their lives today.

Your tax-deductible contribution today can go TWICE as far to deliver lifesaving aid, food, and economic support to Sudan, Myanmar, the Caribbean, and 35+ countries around the world.
Make 2X impact ▸
As a Mercy Corps team member, I meet families who desperately need humanitarian support every single day. I’ve seen firsthand how generosity from people like you can be life-changing. A simple act of kindness means a family can eat that day, children can drink clean water, and farmers can plant crops for their communities.

Here are a few examples of the impact you can create with an early Giving Tuesday matched gift today:
    In Sudan, where escalated violence is threatening the lives of civilians and aid workers, our teams are distributing cash assistance, food, water, medicine and hygiene supplies. Your support can help us reach more people in need. Give now ▸
 
    In Jamaica, where Hurricane Melissa has destroyed hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, and key infrastructure, our teams are providing clean water and hygiene kits to address urgent health risks. Your support can help families recover. Give now ▸
 
    In Gaza, families are enduring famine despite calls for humanitarian aid to flow in. Mercy Corps is actively supplying safe drinking water while stocking up on aid. Your support can ensure we’re ready to scale up our aid response when restrictions are lifted. Give now ▸
Families across the globe are at a critical moment in their lives. This giving season will determine whether they have a place to sleep, food to eat, and the opportunity to build a better life.

What’s next is up to all of us. It’s why I’m personally asking you to take advantage of this early offer and make a gift that will create TWICE the impact for families. Will you make a gift to deliver much-needed aid to families in crisis zones and support communities in 35+ countries around the globe?

Gratefully,
