Hi Friend -- did you see this email the other day (forwarded below).

We just finished crunching the numbers and we fell only $1,980 short of hitting our target to respond to the famine in Somalia and other crises around the world.

Women and girls' lives are hanging in the balance, Friend. That's why we're asking if you'll rush a donation to help us close this funding gap before it's too late. You can donate securely at the link below, and we hope to see your generous gift come in:

Friend, over the past two years, 36.1 million people across the Horn of Africa have suffered from one of the longest and most severe droughts in recent history – and now, following widespread crop failures, thousands have died of hunger in Somalia.

Even though a famine hasn’t been officially declared, the crisis in Somalia is incredibly dire. Some estimates say that as many people may end up starving during this food crisis as in an “official” famine. For over 50 years, UNFPA has been on the ground in Somalia working to provide women and girls with the resources needed to be safe, healthy, and empowered – but now at this critical moment we must expand our reach. That’s why we set an urgent goal to raise $20,000 before 11:59 p.m. on Jan. 31.

Friend, can we count on you to donate $25 or more right now to power our lifesaving work in Somalia and beyond? ([link removed])

Two million women and girls are impacted by these conditions, and the consequences to their well-being are alarming. Over the course of the next few months, incidents of violence will increase, child marriage will become a more widespread coping mechanism for families struggling with poverty, and more than 380,000 women and girls will give birth without access to proper sexual and reproductive health services.

We still have time to change these outcomes. But not much.

That’s why we must raise $20,000 before January ends – the stakes are real and real lives hang in the balance. So please:

Will you rush any amount you can spare now to help us expand our efforts in Somalia and beyond? We can only reach our end-of-month goal with your help. ([link removed])
