Support Christian Aid's appeal to help the thousands of Zimbabweans who are in urgent need of humanitarian aid.
Seven million people needed food aid earlier this year and Zimbabweans are bracing themselves for a further year of food insecurity after yet another poor harvest.
Drought, a ruined infrastructure and an economy in collapse mean people simply can’t grow enough food to survive.
But if we act now, we can help avert this crisis.
Hunger and disease
In recent reports, humanitarian agencies have warned that unless the food insecurity issue is addressed, further outbreaks of diseases such as cholera, anthrax, TB and malaria will claim lives.
According to the UN, the number of cholera cases in Zimbabwe had reached 100,000 by the last week of May and more than 4,000 people had died.
More than half of all children who have died from cholera were malnourished.
Your donations will count
Donating to Christian Aid’s appeal will help raise money to provide seeds, tools and agricultural training before the planting season begins in October.
This should ensure a plentiful harvest in April, producing enough food to feed thousands of people all year and enabling people to earn the money they need to pay for essential medical care.
The change in the political situation in Zimbabwe has given us a window of opportunity in which to work. We do not know how long the reduction in violence and intimidation will last, so we must act now to build peoples' resilience.
We are also using this opportunity to help people build a stronger society - and to stand up to a government that has ravaged their country.
Because we don't just want to reduce hunger. We want poverty over once and for all. And your contribution to this appeal will help us do just that.
Be assured, we will only work through our trusted local partners to deliver support with money raised from this appeal.
