On December 24, WISE staff administered food aid packages to about 125 families in Kabul. WISE raised $4,500 for this distribution. The packages included flour, sugar, and cooking oil. ShamshadNews - شمشادنیوز aired a news segment regarding WISE’s latest humanitarian efforts in Afghanistan.
As winter sets in, nearly 23 million people -- more than half the population -- are facing extreme levels of hunger, according to the United Nations. At least a million children under 5 are at risk of dying from starvation. The vast majority of Afghans rely on agriculture for their livelihoods, but the country has lost 40% of its harvest this year to the drought (WFP). This has caused the cost of staples like wheat and bread to skyrocket. (CNN)
