The food crisis in Kakuma Refugee Camp, Kenya, is worsening, affecting thousands, particularly vulnerable groups. The World Food Program's limited rations are leaving many without help. DES, a refugee-led organization, faces challenges as staff prioritize feeding their families. Donations to the DES Kakuma Famine Relief Fund are urgently needed.
In response to the challenges created by aid cuts, 78 women have registered to learn permaculture and grow crops to help feed their community. Your donation today will fund the creation of a reliable water source, supporting their resilience and efforts to become self-sufficient.
Donations are still needed to support the Kakuma refugee camp population currently enduring famine. Please give generously today.
The Kakuma refugee camp is suffering from a severe water shortage, forcing refugees to illegally access water by breaking pipelines or traveling considerable distances. Despite the dangers, this remains a widespread practice due to a lack of official systems. Donations are needed for the DES Kakuma Famine Relief Fund to help address this crisis.
