Emergency in Southern Africa

Help feed children in four of the worst-affected countries
Southern Africa is experiencing its worst drought in 100 years. In Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia and Zimbabwe, people are facing “emergency” levels of hunger – with an estimated 21 million children suffering from malnutrition.
Mary’s Meals is currently serving nutritious daily meals to more than 1.5 million children in schools across the region, providing a lifeline to families in four of the worst-affected countries.
With your support, we can reach many thousands more children waiting for our daily meals.
