Hardworking families and dedicated mothers are doing everything they can to keep their children from starving. They hope for a different future – one with food for all.   [CRISIS AT A GLANCE] • Globally, one person is dying of hunger every four seconds.   • Hunger isn’t equal. Last year, 150 million more women than men were hungry, and the gap is widening.   • Right now, at least 36.1 million people across the Horn of Africa are going hungry. That’s the equivalent of 1 in every 10 Americans.   • Famine is imminent in Somalia, where one million people have already been displaced searching for food and water for their families.   • The fact is that Russia and Ukraine produce 28% of the world’s fertilizer, which is enough to grow food for 1.2 billion people. That’s equal to the population of the US, Mexico, and Europe combined.     Without food, there is no future.   Your very last gift of the year is tax-deductible and matched 5X to save lives and change food systems.   [$100 is matched to become $500](   [5X MATCH – SAVE LIVES](   CARE’s Year-End Campaign has a special match fund, which will allow one-time gifts made by December 31, 2022, to be matched up to a total of $5,000,000.
