Africa.

In Africa, water-related diseases are taking the lives of young children every day—in fact, a child under the age of five dies from malaria in sub-Saharan Africa every 30 seconds.¹ Millions of families living in rural areas rely solely on potentially dangerous water and often share their only water source with local livestock.² And water isn’t the only problem—droughts are causing food shortages in the driest areas. Nearly half of African children under the age of five are suffering from severe malnutrition.³

Operation Blessing teams are working in Kenya, Niger, Ghana, Nigeria and Egypt to help Africans rise up out of poverty.
