Across the globe, communities are facing extreme weather made worse by
climate change — from flash floods in Indonesia, India and Nepal to
drought in Kenya. The COVID-19 pandemic is making it even more difficult
to prepare and stay safe, due to interruptions in supply chains to get
emergency supplies to communities, and the added health concerns of
sharing crowded shelters if people are forced to evacuate.
Mercy Corps teams are on the ground in more than 40 countries around the
world working with local communities to provide innovative solutions, like
the water stations in Aisah’s community, but we can’t do this lifesaving
work without you. Will you join us?
[ [link removed] ]Donate to the Matching Gift Challenge Fund today.
Your gift is a chance to be part of something bigger, when it inspires
others to follow your lead. With humanitarians like you working together,
we can make 2x the impact for families facing crisis.
Thank you for taking action in this time of great need.

Yesterday in Afghanistan, flash floods killed over 100
people and destroyed hundreds of homes. Ongoing monsoons and landslides in
India and Nepal have displaced millions. In Kenya, severe drought is
disrupting food supplies.
This is what the increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather
events caused by climate change looks like. And it’s people living in
poverty who suffer the most.
Mercy Corps teams are on the ground across the globe helping families
survive disasters, rebuild their communities and strengthen their
resilience to climate change — now while also battling the impacts of the
COVID‑19 pandemic. But to address these challenges we need every single
one of you to join us.
[ [link removed] ]We need humanitarians like you to
make a first gift today. No matter how much you are able to
give, this moment is a chance to be part of something bigger. By donating,
you can inspire others to follow your lead and match that gift, which can
allow us to make twice the impact for families in need. We’ve set an
ambitious goal of $72,000 toward our Matching Gift Challenge Fund — and
with new supporters like you working together to ignite change, I know we
can get there.

[ Aisah ]Aisah in Indonesia
After a severe flash flood, Mercy Corps helped Aisah (pictured) and her
community in rural Indonesia by installing a water point, providing clean
water for cooking, cleaning and drinking.
When a powerful flash flood ripped through Aisah’s village in Java,
Indonesia, it tore her house in half, washing away everything she owned.
The widowed mother of two struggled to provide even the most basic
essentials for her children, like clean drinking water.
"Everything I have washed away during the flash floods."
— Aisah
In the immediate aftermath of the flood, Mercy Corps was there to provide
emergency supplies. Our team worked with the community to install water
points so that they have a constant source of clean water as they rebuild.
This is the kind of impact that your gift can have. [ [link removed] ]Make a
contribution to the Matching Gift Challenge Fund today. When other donors
step up and follow your lead, we can go twice as far to provide lifesaving
work around the world.
