This match is funded by a group of Mercy Corps supporters from around the
country — Sandi from Oregon, Manuel from New Mexico and many others — who
hope to inspire others to give. We need the help of every humanitarian out
there to meet this important goal, so that we can reach even more people
in the new year.

[ [link removed] ]Thank you for standing with us, and for giving what you can.

Subject: What if fighting hunger depends on something you can’t predict?

[ [link removed] ]For Cazmira, a little help was all
she needed. That’s true for so many
people we work with.

Give a little help this holiday season [ [link removed] ]Match My
around the world. Gift

Your gift will be DOUBLED, up to
$130,000, but ONLY through December
30.

[ [link removed] ]$130,000 match is on the table. Multiply your impact now ▸

Cazmira, a farmer and mother of eight, was born in
Timor-Leste, one of the hungriest places in the world. Extreme weather
conditions make farming difficult, yet most people still rely on
small-scale, local agriculture to survive. On average, farmers can only
grow eight months of food each year. When the food runs out, people can
starve.

A lot of people would turn away from Cazmira and the people of
Timor-Leste. Shut their eyes. Cover their ears. "Too hard." "Lost cause."
But not us. And not
you either.

We know we can do better, because together we see the people who live in
tough places, we respect their humanity, learn how best to help them, roll
up our sleeves and dig in together.

[ [link removed] ]Your tax-deductible, year-end gift to Mercy Corps — doubled thanks to
a dollar-for-dollar, $130,000 match! — will help mothers like Cazmira keep
her family fed and safe. Please, make your gift today.

[ Cazmira ]Cazmira in East Timor
Cazmira lives in a remote mountain village in Timor-Leste. Farmers like
Cazmira are going hungry as the dry seasons here are getting longer and
the rains are becoming harder to predict.
Cazmira already faces tough challenges farming in Timor-Leste, but the
reality is that global warming is making a difficult climate even harder
to navigate. The rains are shorter and less predictable, making it hard to
know when to plant. For Cazmira and her family, planting too early or too
late could mean life or death.

But all is not lost for Cazmira. Working with Mercy Corps, she’s learned
to grow crops that are more resilient in Timor-Leste’s severe climate and
build bamboo walls to protect her gardens from landslides and flash floods
that increasingly plague her community.

The people who benefit from our emergency aid and anti-poverty programs —
people like Cazmira — they’re already doing everything they can to
survive. But in almost every case, to get beyond just surviving, they need
some help.

[ [link removed] ]This holiday season, your year-end gift to Mercy Corps could be the
compassionate help the next Cazmira needs to get out of poverty and beat
malnutrition, to not only survive but thrive, right where they live. Make
your gift now, and it will be matched, dollar-for-dollar, up to $130,000.

[ [link removed] ]Support Families in Need
We have the tools and knowledge to help people living in even the most
difficult places lead safe, healthy and long lives. We just need the resources to reach
them — resources Mercy Corps donors provide.

Sincerely,

Alan Glasgow
Regional Director | Asia

We know you’re hearing a lot from us these days. The reason is simple:

try to meet unprecedented need around the world. If you’ve already made
your gift or would rather not get our year-end emails, [ [link removed] ]click here to
