Emergency Food Packs Provide Life-Saving Nutrition

Brothers Vishal (age 5) and Vengadeshwaram (age 4) are part of Compassion’s Child Sponsorship Program in Sri Lanka. Their father is a tuk-tuk driver, but he has lost most of his income amid drastic fuel shortages and rising prices. The family struggles to afford food. They are not alone – malnutrition is rising in Sri Lanka and many are experiencing food shortages. In response to the crisis, Compassion is distributing emergency food packs to the families of sponsored children that include nutritious food essentials and hygiene items. Their mother has made the difficult choice to leave the community to find short-term work. She’s thankful knowing that the local Compassion program will keep her family healthy and safe.

Eight-year-old Stella lives on her family’s farm in Kenya with her mother, grandmother and two older sisters. After three growing seasons without rain, Kenya’s president declared the drought a national disaster. A major locust invasion, the first in 75 years, led to further loss of crops. Her farm failing, Stella’s mother began collecting and selling firewood to provide for the family, but it was not enough. In response to the crisis, Compassion’s local church partner began distributing emergency food packs in addition to offering training to local farming families like Stella’s on new agricultural practices with far less reliance on rainfall. Stella’s family is hopeful these new techniques will generate more sustained food production as they wait for rain to come.

Ester is a young girl living in Togo. Her family runs a small farm that has struggled to produce crops amid widespread drought across Africa. Through Compassion’s global food crisis response, Ester’s family received training, supplies and technical support that have enabled their farm and others in the community to restore their crops to productive levels. These farmers are now donating their extra food to the local Compassion child development center so everyone in the community can benefit, and the cycle of generosity can continue.
