Somalia continues to be one of the poorest countries in the world. 3.5 million people are acutely food insecure and in need of humanitarian assistance. With poverty rate of 73% and around 24% of people live on less than $1 a day, our food assistance is helping people who are most affected by food insecurity.
In 2020 we provided food assistance to over 2000 vulnerable people in Bakool and Bay regions in Somalia. We will continue to work closely with local authorities, partner organizations and volunteers to alleviate suffering and to ensure our meager resources cover the priority needs of people identified to be in need of humanitarian assistance.
