Dear Concerns [On behalf of CARE, Muktidooth Media reproducing]

Donate today and change a life forever. Until August 22, your gift will be matched!

In eastern Chad, CARE staff emerge from a temporary warehouse with arms full of something incredibly precious.

Cereals, lentils, cooking oil, sugar and salt: they're just the basics, but for families without enough food for their children, these staples are literally life-changing.

Every day, CARE staff on the ground see real people facing real and serious needs like hunger, thirst and disease. We're doing whatever it takes to get practical solutions like food staples or high-nutrient supplements to the families who need them most, but the crisis in Chad and the rest of Western Africa is deepening by the day and we desperately need your help.

Lives are on the line. Will you help CARE send food and essentials to families in the Sahel and around the world? Donate today and each dollar you give will be matched – up to the match limit of $150,000!

In the Sahel region just south of the Sahara desert, food stocks are depleted – and the whole region is suffering through a food crisis. According to a recent field study, 100% of families surveyed in two hard hit regions in Niger say they have already cut back on the food they eat each day. There's simply not enough to eat.

Khadija Mohamad, 24, has three sons. Her fields produced a measly crop, and because so little is available, food is now 4 times more expensive. She's been forced to cut down rations and give her young sons only two meals a day.

"Here, we suffer," she says. Around the world, women just like her are experiencing the same pangs of need – and all that is necessary is a little help so that they can create their own success stories.

Please help us stop the suffering for women like Khadija all around the world.

Thank you, again, for all of your help. With your support, we can reach even remote and difficult communities with essential, lifesaving supplies.

Sincerely,

Helene D. Gayle, MD, MPH
President and CEO, CARE
