As flooding continues to devastate East Africa, displacing over a million people, destroying thousands of households and leaving many families with limited access to essential supplies and healthcare, we have been supporting communities to protect the most vulnerable.
We have initially been transporting health workers to affected areas, so people can benefit from vital healthcare, as travel remains difficult and waterborne diseases continue to spread.
As we continue to raise awareness of this situation, and funding so we can provide essential support at this critical time, we are reaching out to you with an urgent message from our team in Ethiopia.
The survival of the most vulnerable groups - children, pregnant women, the elderly - is threatened by the dire conditions that people are facing. Health Poverty Action is supporting affected communities with immediate relief and will continue working with these communities over the coming months and years to improve people's health and ensure that more people can prosper.
Please help us to spread the word about this appeal through your networks, so even more people can contribute to this urgent effort. And please do give whatever you can to help communities recover from this disaster.
