Dear friends and companions of Malteser International,
Please take half a minute of your attention, don't just swipe away this call for action:
For many people, Christmas is a time of reflection and gratitude. It’s time spent with family and friends. In many countries, celebrating a Christmas dinner with special or traditional dishes is an essential part of the festivities. It is the remembrance of the birth of the most generous donor of al times: Jesus Christ. And yet one that not everyone is able to celebrate. Because too many plates remain empty. Not only at Christmas time: 828 million people around the world suffer from hunger - day by day.
Across our global network, many share their personal stories of resilience, but many face hunger on a daily basis. Before 2020, it appeared global hunger was on a downward trend, that more people were able to access food. But four key factors in recent years have caused a backslide on the progress we’ve made: pandemics, war, climate change, and poverty. They all feed hunger.
It seems like global hunger has always been there and we forget that #HungerIsNotNatural. Hunger is caused by humans and can therefore be tackled by humans. Eliminating hunger is possible. Everyone can make a contribution in the fight against hunger.
Together we can make a difference. Let's stand together against hunger.
Every donation counts. Freely you have received, freely give! (Mt 10:8)
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Yours sincerely,
|
