Mercy Corps is a 33-year-old humanitarian organisation that saves and improves lives in the world’s toughest places. Mercy Corps’ programmes help people turn the crises of natural disasters, conflict, and poverty into opportunities — by providing them with the tools and support they need to transform their own lives.

 

Mercy Corps works in the toughest places: Failing states like Somalia and Zimbabwe, conflict zones like Afghanistan, Congo and Iraq, countries that have endured natural disasters, like Pakistan and Haiti.

In these places, a child’s life is often at risk. A woman’s education is often ignored. A family’s livelihood is never a sure thing. These conditions threaten the welfare of neighbourhoods, towns, provinces, countries and entire regions. In this globalised world, our lives are increasingly interdependent and threats to people 10,000 miles away become threats to us.

So please dig deep and donate now.
