Summary

Help feed 500 children and their families this winter. Many of these families are living in cargo containers, tents and other make-shift forms of housing.

What is the issue, problem, or challenge?

After the Bam earthquake in 2006, many families living in poverty lost their homes while also suffering long term injuries and medical needs. Today, these families continue to experience severe economic hardship, as they struggle to secure basic necessities such as food, adequate shelter, medical attention and clothes, during the coldest months of the year.

How will this project solve this problem?

By providing food, you can help families survive the cold winter months while also helping more children to stay in school.

Potential Long Term Impact

Over 500 hundred families will receive food baskets this winter. We can help families break the cycle and stigma of poverty by helping their children stay in school; ultimately, helping them reach their true and full potential.

Project Message

"Food distribution helps many children in these hard economic times. This food helps families meet their daily needs."
- Sahan Fardi, Coordinator of Child Foundation Affairs, Iran
