Aid Packages
842,000,000 people will be hungry as they go
to bed tonight. Famine
and wars cause just 10% of hunger deaths, 90% is due to poverty. In
Indonesia 40% of the population lives below the poverty line, that’s
450,000,000 people. 6,000,000 children die every year from hunger
and malnutrition. |
Sacred Childhoods helps to combat hunger by evaluating orphanages and
children’s projects in Indonesia to understand whether they are
able to provide regular food and water to the children.
Many of the children’s projects are run by local people of the
community on a shoe string budget and if donations fail to come in some
months the children literally starve.
By understanding the financial needs of the projects Sacred Childhoods
is able to channel emergency food packages to the children as required.
Our volunteers distribute these packages themselves and often cook the
rice, meats and vegetables with the children.
