An estimated 40 million - 60 million people may fall into extreme poverty in 2020 as a result of COVID-19, with 23 million of these new poor expected to live in sub-Saharan Africa. The global pandemic is placing huge strain on those living in extreme poverty, or forcing those living close to the poverty line into a dire situation where they can no longer provide for their families due to sudden loss of income and lack of social protection.
Families like Jane's in Makuyu, Nairorbi. She lives with her husband and one year old son, Mark Moses. COVID-19 and the restrictions has left both Jane and her husband recently unemployed and with no means to put food on the table.
We need your support to ensure that children like Mark Moses and his mother Jane get the life-saving help they need this year.
Thank you for your support, it means the world to families facing extreme hunger. Just one day of sacrifice could make a life-saving difference.
