As humanitarians, we’re called upon to help build a better future for us
all — a future where everyone can thrive. [ [link removed] ]Your tax-deductible,
matching gift to Mercy Corps could do just that: helping put food on the
table for school children in Kyrgyzstan, emergency cash in the hands of
Venezuelan refugees in Colombia, and providing COVID-19 preventions like
clean water and handwashing stations in Somalia.

2020 has been a difficult year for many people. But even in a year marked
by a relentless beat of alarming headlines, our team members, partners,
supporters and the communities we work with are still finding new
possibilities for a brighter future.

Because when things get tough, we know we can’t just throw up our hands
and say "What now?" To make lasting change possible, we have to roll up
our sleeves and say, "What can we do next?"

[ Kyrgyzstan ]Kyrgyzstan
In schools throughout Kyrgyzstan, children receive nutritious, hot lunches
prepared by Mercy Corps-trained chefs who are dedicated to providing
healthy meals for the children.
[ [link removed] ]Make 2x impact ▸
In Kyrgyzstan, that drive to help has taken the form of nutrition support
for the country’s school children, providing vitamin-enriched hot meals
that keep kids ready to learn. When we first started this work back in
1994, it was common for these kids to have a single cup of tea as their
midday meal. Now, schools report 100% attendance rates and happier,
healthier students, quite literally millions of meals later.

[ [link removed] ]Your matching gift today could help feed a child in Kyrgyzstan and
keep them in school.

[ Colombia ]Colombia
Mercy Corps adapted its cash assistance programming in Colombia in
response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In Colombia, we’re working with refugees who have fled violent conflict
and economic collapse in Venezuela. Before COVID-19, these families relied
on informal work like selling home-cooked food and items on the street.
But when the pandemic hit, that work disappeared, leaving families without
a means to provide for themselves. Now, our teams go door-to-door,
providing cash and hygiene kits to help these families make it through.

[ [link removed] ]Help those displaced by violent conflict survive the most difficult
circumstances of their lives. Make your tax deductible, matching gift to
Mercy Corps today.

[ Somalia ]Somalia
Somalia’s Ministry of Education provided guidelines for the reopening of
schools like this one, and with COVID-19 support packages supplied by
Mercy Corps, children are back in school.
In Somalia, we’re taking on COVID-19 risk and prevention, helping with
infrastructure projects like rehabilitating a school’s water and
sanitation systems. We’re also setting up hand-washing stations and
providing the supplies necessary to safely reopen schools that shut down
in March.

Nasro, 15, who attends a recently reopened school says, "Everyone is now
aware of the massive risks of COVID-19. Even though it seems to be slowing
down, we are keeping our distance as much as possible, extensively washing
our hands and wearing masks during class."

Your gift is one very important piece of the puzzle that helps make this
life-changing work possible — in more than 40 countries around the world.

[ [link removed] ]For kids like those in Kyrgyzstan and Somalia who are eager to learn,
and families in Colombia whose livelihoods were ripped away by this
pandemic, make your matching gift right now.

Thank you,
