Saving a child is sometimes just a matter of making a decision

Democratic Republic of Congo

The second largest country of Africa, full of paradoxes. On one hand, it is rich in natural resources (including cobalt, copper, coltan, crude oil, diamonds, gold); on the other hand, its inhabitants are among the poorest in the world. For decades, the DRC has been suffering from prolonged conflicts that have led to one of the most severe humanitarian crises in the world.

Overview:
  • 15,6 million people – 18% of the population suffer from hunger
  • 3,4 million children under 5 years are acutely malnourished
  • 41,8% million children under 5 years are stunted
  • 63,2% of children below 5 years of age and 41% of women  15-49 years are anemic
In 2023, we have saved approximately

550

people from starvation
We take in at least

80

children a week in our nutrition center

Saving a child is sometimes just a matter of making a decision. A decision that you will read this post.

A decision that you will enter a few KRS digits when you do your tax return. A decision to donate 1.5% of the tax you have worked hard for all year to us. There will be no cost to you, other than 3 minutes of your time, which has the power to give a child the experience of life as an adult. Donating 1.5% will not make your tax refund lower; it will simply reduce the income of the tax office in favour of a donation to those in need.

Your decision today will ensure that at least one child out of the more than 200 in our care will recover from hunger disease.

If you have not yet done your 2022 tax return, please, make a decision to support a cause you believe in. Don’t leave the box for the KRS number blank. Our life-saving KRS No. is 0000519542. Use the online application we have prepared to reduce your workload to a minimum: https://www.e-pity.pl/pit-online/?opp=0000519542&ogid=32334

We receive and feed between 80 and 100 children in various stages of malnutrition every week. We feed them specialised, high-calorie food and bouille – a nutritious drink made from sorghum flour, maize, soya with added milk, sugar and vegetable oil. Sometimes one 400 ml cup of the drink can make the difference between life and death.

You have been following our profile for some time now. You know we are effective. We ask you to trust us this year too, and we bow low to all those who make the decision to support our charges at the nutrition centre in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

We need to dry out the buildings as quickly as possible

Urgent help for flood victims

The most vulnerable are the elderly and disabled, living in remote rural areas and small towns, where reaching them is difficult. You’ll be informed about every penny spent to help them. 100% of the funds raised will go directly towards targeted, precise aid tailored to the needs of those affected.
