Faith, a Maasai mother living in Kenya, lost her sole source of income. See how advocates like you helped us change her story.

 

After Faith lost all of her cattle during a prolonged drought, she was no longer able to feed her children. But because of Compassion’s Survival Program and support from the Global Food Crisis Fund, she found renewed faith and hope. "My children are not hungry anymore,” says Faith.

Faith is one of hundreds of thousands being supported through our global food crisis efforts.

“The drought has been severe. If it wasn’t for Compassion, I think my children would have died of hunger. There was no hope for us without Compassion.”
