East Africa food crisis emergency appeal

Across East Africa, 16 million people need immediate food assistance. Hundreds of people have already died of starvation. Drought, poor rains and conflict have decimated harvests leaving millions of children malnourished and in need of urgent food and medical support.

Your assistance can help World Jewish Relief provide emergency food, water and livelihoods in order to survive. Please give generously.

World Jewish Relief is the British Jewish community’s international humanitarian agency and Reform Judaism is supporting this urgent appeal.

Rabbi Laura Janner-Klausner, Senior Rabbi to Reform Judaism said: “With Passover around the corner, marking the spring harvest, we are aware that ecosystems are so fragile. In East Africa, 16 million urgently need help. I know our community will draw on our duty as Jews to give tzedakah, particularly at this time of year and will give generously to ensure World Jewish Relief can help those who are in need”.
