East Africa Hunger Crisis
Campaign by Save the Children (RCN England and Wales (213890) Scotland (SC039570))
Children living in East Africa are on the brink of one of the worst famines in 40 years. Six million people are suffering extreme hunger. If we act now, together we can save millions of children's futures.

Story

Jumani is running his first marathon in London!  A few years ago he trained in Kenya and loved the experience. East Africa is currently experiencing a food crisis and Jumani hopes to raise some money to support this community. Any donations would be hugely appreciated. 

A perfect storm - caused by the war in Ukraine, climate change and the failure of the world to respond quickly is causing a wave of Severe Acute Malnutrition AKA S.A.M to spread across East Africa.Every 48 seconds, someone in Somalia, Kenya and Ethiopia are dying from hunger.Is there a cure to hunger? Yeah and it costs peanuts. £30 can pay for a childs 6 week course of high-nutrient peanut paste which will stop S.A.M in its tracks and give children their future back. We've been working across East Africa for many years. We run longer-term programmes as well as short-term disaster response, and work together with local partners, governments and communities.
