$300,000 Matching Gift Challenge: Your end-of-year support can help us make 2x the impact for people in crisis. Give now




Life can be beautiful, even in the most difficult circumstances.

Antoinette fled her home, after political violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo took her husband’s life. With no money to go to the hospital, Antoinette gave birth to her daughter, Sarah (both pictured below), at the house of her village chief.

2x impact

"I was very scared that the baby would die during delivery," she told us. But they both survived. And though this young family now faces a painful loss and struggles for security, Antoinette and Sarah have each other, they have community and they have our support.

A generous group of donors has contributed $300,000 to our Matching Gift Challenge Fund to encourage others to match their gifts. Before the day is done, make your matching, year-end gift to Mercy Corps to help people like Antoinette survive the biggest challenges of their lives.

Antoinette is one of thousands of people in the DRC we’re reaching with resources like cash assistance, clean water and sanitation access.

Even amidst the most extreme challenges, when our team members, partners, program participants and supporters come together, we can build a brighter future. Thank you for being a part of that, and for helping us make 2x the impact, with your gift today.
