Zimbabwe Emergency Appeal

Zimbabwe is a country in crisis.

Chronic hunger, malnutrition, cholera, unemployment, hyper-inflation, political repression, human rights abuses – a sea of suffering is engulfing the people of Zimbabwe.

This year, it's reckoned up to five million people out of the 13 million population will be in need of food aid due to bad harvests and ineffective government.

Please give whatever you can and pray today.
