Nutrition Packets for Starving Kids in Somalia

Thanks to you, Xaliimo and her children are alive today!

After their animals died in the drought, Xaliimo and her five children packed up their few belongings and left their home. Without any income, the family had no food to eat, and the youngest children were dying from malnutrition. They needed help to survive! So they walked to Shululux Village because they heard there was emergency aid available there. 

Your gift helped save Xaliimo and her family!

“We have received emergency nutrition packets for two of my young children and $80 to buy rice, sugar, flour, cooking oil, and meat. Now we are able to eat three times a day,’’ Xaliimo said. “We are very grateful to World Concern and the project funders for the support they have given us during this hard time as we lost all of our animals.’’

Thank you for feeding this precious family!

Just when Farxiya thought all hope was lost, your gift arrived!

Because of the drought in Somalia, Farxiya’s three children were wasting away from hunger. These little girls were weak and malnourished, lacking the energy to play outside with their friends. Farxiya watched in fear as they grew weaker and weaker.

But you provided the miracle these sisters needed at just the right time!

Farxiya ran home the moment she received the emergency nutrition packets you sent, eager to feed her starving children.

The instant she tore open the packets for her little girls to eat, the powerful nutrition you provided went right to work! In a matter of days they stabilized and began to gain weight.

“I saw that they were improving! They are very good now,” said Farxiya.

When there seemed no way for these little children to survive, you provided life-saving nutrition. You gave Farxiya and other moms like her the emergency food needed to make sure their children survived.

Now, these little ones have a new chance at life – thanks to your generosity!

Thank you for giving these precious children health and hope for a better future.
