The Problem

Those in poverty have been through a lot these past four years. After a pandemic that ended jobs and left many desperate for help to feed their children, things only got worse. Economic instability, political conflict, supply chain interruptions and severe drought have all combined to cause the most severe global food crisis the world has seen since World War II.

In 10 countries where Compassion works, the global food crisis has had devastating effects (Kenya, Uganda, Togo, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Sri Lanka). We thank God that in six of these 10 countries, our work has now expanded beyond emergency relief to include helping children and their families achieve sustainable food production through farming and business development. But many families still desperately need immediate support. In fact, we estimate that many Compassion assisted children and families will need ongoing emergency food and food production support for at least the next three years.

The regions most affected are shown below:
