Organised by Christian Partners in AfricaThe impact of the current drought, after only 3 days rain in 2015, is far greater than before. Much of the seed sown has been lost, leaving less for feeding people, livestock and planting.

The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.
Visit the charity's profileCPA and VWDO have formed an agreement to provide food for 770 children once a day at Sefi Beret primary school. The cost of this is just under £20k, or about £25 per child for the six months.
VWDO, working alongside the local government has identified 700 of the poorest households in Sefi Beret to receive seed, ensuring fields can be sown in time for the much hoped for rains. The seed required for one household is 20kg of Masho or Mung bean. One recipient farmer, Abere said, “Due to the erratic rainfall last year I lost all the seed. I had no hope but I prayed for God to provide me a seed and He did”.
Due to the urgency to provide seed CPA is funding this programme from its reserves, trusting that your generosity will help. £15 provides seed that will harvest enough for one household for 6 months. £25 provides food for one child and keeps them in school until December. £110 feeds 770 children in school for one day.
Your help will save lives and bring hope to a desperate people.
