Christian Aid Harvest Appeal 2022
Over the last few months Christian Aid has continued its work in responding to the humanitarian emergencies in Afghanistan and Ukraine. However, it continues its work in those areas of the world where drought and other extreme weather events, intensified by climate change, make life for many people a daily struggle to survive. Sadly, these problems are often not recognized by the rest of the world until crisis point is reached.
This year’s harvest appeal is in aid of the East Africa Hunger Crisis. After the worst drought in 40 years, millions of people across Ethiopia, South Sudan and Kenya are unable to grow crops. The combination of climate change, covid and escalating food prices due to the war in Ukraine, have turned this situation into a crisis and many face the threat of famine.
Christian Aid is working through local partners in East Africa to respond to this. Funds raised through the harvest appeal will go towards this work which includes repairing wells, handing out water purification kits, providing cash support, trucking water to drought-affected communities and providing fodder and medicine to keep livestock alive.
