Feed a Family | Covid-19 Response in Indonesia
Story
Help us provide food for 300 families in urgent need! We serve and assist poor TB patients, impoverished families, homeless, and those that are overlooked and discriminated against. Many of these people are the hardest hit by the current economic crisis in Indonesia. They now have no income, no savings and no assets. For $20 you can provide 2 weeks' worth of food for one family in urgent need. Help us bring hope to the suffering in this difficult time.
Impact
By providing this assistance, these families will not be forced to take high interest loans or to sell what few possessions they have in order to feed their families. For the homeless we serve, they will not be forced to steal or resort to other illegal and dangerous methods to obtain food. For the impoverished TB patients we serve, they will get much needed hygiene essentials that will help lower their risk of contracting COVID-19 and they will also receive food packets if needed.
Challenge
There are millions of people in Indonesia that live below the poverty line, making less than $1.00 a day. These people live hand-to-mouth, meaning they make only enough money each day to feed themselves for that day, and when their income is gone, they literally have nothing. As the COVID-19 health crisis is causing devastating economic effects, many people have lost their jobs and all sources of income. These families are in critical and urgent need of assistance.
