- If you would like to support Embrace Relief’s Hunger Relief efforts, you can donate meat packages to hungry families around the world today with just a few clicks.
Thanks to your generous support, Embrace Relief received 2,912 Qurban shares during our International Hunger Relief: Qurban 2020 campaign, and we are on track to distribute a total of 17,500 meat packages to families worldwide for Qurban 2020!
Qurban packages contain meat that was humanely and hygienically sacrificed from cattle, sheep, and goats. You have brought the gift of food and joy to the tables of thousands of families in 10 countries around the globe!
One of those countries, Yemen, is currently facing the world’s worst humanitarian crisis leaving millions on the brink of famine. According to the United Nations, 360,000 children could die from hunger in 2020 alone. Thanks to your support, Embrace Relief has distributed 906 Qurban meat packages to families who are facing severe food insecurity in the country.
Your Qurban donations are also going to provide much-needed nutrition for thousands in sub-Saharan Africa. Since refrigeration is often a rarity in this part of the world, many recipients cut, salt, dry, and grind the meat into a powder which they can sprinkle into foods and drinks. This powdered protein can last a family in Africa for up to one whole year.
Meat and animal products are necessary for children in order to grow properly because of the protein, minerals, and vitamins they contain. According to the World Food Programme, the number of people experiencing food insecurity is projected to rise to 265 million this year. Embrace Relief’s Hunger Relief Program is designed to combat the hunger crisis whenever and wherever we can in the most efficient and effective way. We sincerely thank you for your continued support of our hunger relief programs!
The work we do would not be possible without your contributions. And our work will continue on for as long as there are hungry people in the world.
If you would like to donate to support Embrace Relief’s ongoing hunger relief efforts, you can do so with just a couple of clicks in the donation box below. By sharing your food, you can give families around the world the world hope and a brighter future!
