DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
In the drought stricken areas of Kenya, the rainfall is erratic and often insufficient. The recent drought in Kenya and Somalia caused more than 260,000 people to die from hunger.
A simple, inexpensive drip irrigation system can bring relief and hope to the thousands of people who are suffering from drought in Kenya. It can also provide a long term solution to the ongoing problem of hunger in East Africa.
CHRISTMAS GIFTS OF MOSQUITO NETS
On December 26th, Methodist Bishop Wellington Sanga completed the distribution of 560 mosquito nets. Bishop Sanga is providing insecticide treated bed nets to people in his community. The first priority is to provide them to children and pregnant women to prevent malaria infections and death. The sad and staggering fact is that in Africa, every year over 700,000 children die needlessly from this completely preventable disease.
250,000 MEALS DISTRIBUTED TO FAMILIES IN DROUGHT AND FAMINE AREAS
The worst drought in 60 years has caused a severe food crisis in Kenya and left more than 3 million Kenyans facing malnutrition and starvation. The worst hit areas are mainly in Northern Kenya. This has resulted in massive crop failure, drying up of the few water sources, and death of animals which are the community’s major source of income.
In response to the news African Team Ministries shipped a 40’ container with 250,000 meals. It arrived fully intact with taxes and duty waived.
