SOMALIA’S WORST DROUGHT CRISIS IN A DECADE

Hi my name is Muna Mahamed, my mother and I are raising money for the people suffering from the extreme drought in Somalia.

With €20 we will be able to support 2 people for a whole month. 

The money raised will directly help each family buy food and water to survive the drought.

Follow me on my Instagram @_munamahamed
I will keep you updated there on what will happen with the donations.

Over 12,000 people from 15 of 18 regions across Somalia reveals:
 
70% of households do not have enough food to eat
Nearly 700,000 camels, goats, sheep and cattle died from drought-related causes over two months
Somalia is experiencing its worst drought crisis in a decade, with millions going hungry and being forced from their homes in search of food and water.

Omar* is a father from a village in Beledweyne district in southern Somalia. Omar told Save the Children:

 
“We used to feed the children three times a day, but now it’s hard to feed them even two times, so mostly it’s one meal a day.
 
“We are able to survive day by day during the previous drought, but this one is drier than ever, with water being harder to find. We don’t have food, and the livestock are dying.
 
“People might die in this drought, if we can’t find help.”

Thank you and god bless you!

 

The impact on families is being felt more severely this season due to the result of multiple, prolonged droughts in quick succession, a worsening security situation, desert locust infestations, soaring food prices, reduced remittances and less money committed by donors to respond.

 

Somalia has experienced three major drought crises in the past decade; in 2011/12, 2016/2017, and now in 2021/22.
