Your love in action

Drought in northeastern Uganda has made it impossible for families to grow food. Children like 18-month-old Olivia are on the brink of starvation.

God made room for us at His table through Jesus. This Christmas, will you make room for a hungry child?

Thanks to special matching opportunities from generous partners, every dollar you give will be multiplied 4x to rush life-saving food to children Jesus loves.

“Olivia is sick. We have nothing to eat.”

“We tried to plant this year, but we didn’t get anything because of the drought. I ask God to give me hope and the courage that everything will be OK…But I fear I may lose my child,” says Gloria, Olivia’s mom.

“As a mother, I have worry and sadness deep inside my heart because I have no food to give my child.”

A health worker measures Olivia’s upper arm. The band shows red, a sign of severe malnutrition.

This photo of Olivia shows why your urgent action is needed. When the band shows red, a child is severely malnourished.

Your gift can change everything

Your urgent donation will help children survive and help families put hunger behind them:

  • Provide emergency food to help malnourished children recover their health, fast.
  • Equip families to plant drought-resistant veggie gardens, with tools and training to grow nutritious food year-round.
  • Provide chickens for families to nourish children with protein-rich eggs. Plus extra to sell so families can afford a variety of healthy food.


Whatever you feel led to give this Christmas will be multiplied FOUR TIMES to deliver 4x the urgent food and loving care.

Gifts are multiplied through special matching opportunities from generous partners, up to a total of $100,000. The 4x multiplier reflects an average across matched gifts. Once the matching goal is reached, additional gifts will continue to support similar projects helping hungry children and their families.
