Together for Mozambique

On March 15th, a cyclone hit Mozambique, devastating many of the communities where we work. We're mobilizing our local networks to address immediate needs and begin long-term recovery efforts of families impacted.

How You Can Help

“The whole village is devastated. We are living in fear. Many houses have fallen. There is no more food. If we go to our gardens, there is no sign to show that something existed before. My 10 chickens were swept away by the floods. I don’t know where to start.”
