A failed harvest in Zambia is pushing the nation towards a serious food shortage in the coming months. At least 1.7 million Zambians need food and the situation is deteriorating rapidly. Maize prices have risen by more than 60% from a year ago, pushing this basic cereal beyond the reach of the poorest people leading them to hunger and malnutrition. To help them through until the next harvest, maize will be purchased providing food for families in rural villages.
$65 CAD will provide food for a family of five per month. Make cheques payable to Hungry for Life International
