We’re nearing the end of 2022, my friends, and it’s time to make a choice. As millions of people face war, drought, and poverty, those of us who care about building a brighter future must show up and act to make this vision a reality. A more resilient, inclusive future is within reach — if we each continue to do our part. With just two days remaining in 2022, will you help us meet our final Matching Gift Challenge goal with your year-end, tax-deductible matching gift right now? A group of generous donors has already given $400,000 to encourage our community of givers to make a matching gift before the new year — and time is running out!
Severe drought in Kenya has made growing crops difficult for Abongon Echwa, 27. She was able to buy food for herself and her six children using Mercy Corps emergency cash.
Together, we prioritize four outcomes that determine people’s wellbeing: food security, water security, economic opportunities, and peace and good governance. In practice, this means supporting community-led soil management techniques. It means developing early warning systems to prepare for floods. It means providing business training and financial services for women entrepreneurs. It means helping young people find nonviolent alternatives to resolving local conflicts. And so much more. To support this kind of locally led impact in 40+ countries, please make your year-end, tax-deductible MATCHING gift today. Thank you for being part of this extraordinary community of action. Sincerely,
P.S. We know you’re hearing a lot from us these days. The reason is simple: Every dollar we raise right now helps the people we work with protect their families and improve their lives. If you’ve already made your gift (thank you!) or would rather not get our year-end emails, click here to pause email until January.
