The Refugee Crisis in Tanzania
Tanzania Refugees Outside Blog Africa alone
Every year, millions of people are forced to flee from their homes due to war, political instability, economic decline, disease, and violence. Embrace Relief helps those who are displaced by providing food packages, legal counseling, guidance through the asylum process, and rent assistance.
In Tanzania alone, there are over 318,000 people who have nowhere to call home. While the country has long welcomed refugees, it does not have the capacity or resources to accommodate all those who are seeking refuge. Unfortunately, many experience malnutrition and other deprivations. For the majority of these people the closest thing they currently know to safety are refugee camps where they are neglected and lack basic necessities.
Embrace Relief goes beyond just collecting and sending money. Our organization has many volunteers on the ground in Tanzania. Over the course of three days this week alone, they will deliver 500 food packages, which will help an ever-expanding number of people. With every passing day, more and more people hear about this help and flock to seek refuge in the arms of those who care.
