The end of Ramadan is marked by the Eid al-Fitr, which is a source of joy and celebration for billions of people around the world. This occasion is especially joyous for children since most of them will welcome it with new clothes and gifts, yet not every child is so lucky. Many refugee kids around the globe will welcome Eid away from their homes, away from people they love and their favorite toys.

This Eid, Embrace Relief wants to cheer up some of those children with gifts. We will raise funds to buy toys and miscellaneous other gifts to be distributed to refugee children, initially to those in Greece. Each supply box per child will cost $20.

Join the campaign today and put a smile on a kid’s face!

The Last Day of World Hunger Month

Posted on May 30, 2019 | by Henry Montesano

World Hunger Month may be coming to an end but global starvation is not. The fear of famine continues to loom over many countries, including Yemen, Tanzania, Greece, and even parts of the United States. There is a lack of food causing starvation, but also a lack of hope that causes emotional starvation. Those who are experiencing this hunger crisis struggle and fight for their lives everyday, but hold on in hopes for a better future. Here at Embrace Relief, the generous donations from donors and volunteers turn this hope into a reality. Not only do they help those who are suffering, they also aid them in building a more secure and sustainable future. When you donate, you do not only help feed their hunger but also their hope. People of all ages need your help immediately. Over 3.3 million children in Tanzania alone suffer on a daily basis from malnutrition. In Greece, 1 million refugees struggle to find food. In 2018 alone, over 85,000 children died of starvation in Yemen, and a severe famine threatens 14 million Yemeni. And over 5.8 million households in the United States experience food insecurity.

Embrace Relief not only supplies food but also hope. So many people suffer from a lack of food, but you can help them. When you send them a food package from our website you allow them to keep going by not only feeding them but by also giving them hope. Thanks to our donors, Embrace Relief has been able to send 5,240 food packages, improving thousands of lives. With your continued help and support, we can lift the lives of many more struggling people, and build new hope for them.

Today is World Hunger Day

Posted on May 28, 2019 | by Henry Montesano

Today, May 28th, 2019, is World Hunger Day, and Embrace Relief is proud to announce that the organization has helped thousands of people through the plight of hunger. This past year, with the help of countless volunteers and donors, Embrace Relief has been able to deliver over 4,400 food packages to places such as Greece, Tanzania and even the United States. With continued support, we expect to expand our boundaries and help thousands of others around the world! According to WorldHungerDay.org, more than 821 million people in the world do not have enough food, of which 60% of the world’s hungry are women, and 98% of the world’s unnourished live in developing countries.(1) First held on May 28, 2010, World Hunger Day is designed to raise awareness of the people worldwide experiencing chronic hunger. Furthermore, it seeks to celebrate sustainable solutions to hunger and poverty. The theme this year focuses on sustainability, the Hunger Project believes ending hunger is possible when we empower people to become agents of change, lifting themselves – and their communities – out of hunger and poverty for the long term.(2) The United Nations has laid out 17 sustainable development goals, the most relevant here being Goal 2: “Zero Hunger.”(3) The organization recognizes that relief groups need to do more than just simply feed people; they must help ensure ample food security and access to clean water and agricultural technology. The modern world has the ability to successfully feed all 7 billion people, yet 11.3% are battling hunger and struggling to survive. Every year, millions of people around the world face hunger, but with the help of donors, they have a chance for a better life. This issue does not stop at hunger: It is also related to extreme poverty and lack of education, which results in the lack of knowledge necessary to access clean water and agricultural needs.

The hard work and dedication of Embrace Relief volunteers and donors has been astounding and continues to make a difference in people’s lives around the world. Thousands of people have been positively impacted and have experienced their lives turn around due to their help. Help us celebrate World Hunger Day this month by clicking on the link below. Your contributions will help give those in need the strength, tools and materials to achieve sustainable living.

World Hunger Day 2019 – May 28th

Posted on May 21, 2019 | by Henry Montesano

In preparation of World Hunger Day 2019, Embrace Relief is proud to announce that thanks to its supporters and volunteers, the organization was able to distribute 3,500 food packs to the hungry in Africa, Greece and even the United States. Your hard work has kept Embrace Relief in line with the ideals and initiatives of The Hunger Project, particularly those established in World Hunger Day. The Hunger Project, the organization heading World Hunger Day, was founded in 1977. On its website, it describes itself as a strategic organization, that has reinvented itself repeatedly to continually meet new challenges in the fight against hunger.(1) First held on May 28, 2010, World Hunger Day is designed to raise awareness of the approximately 815 million people worldwide experiencing chronic hunger. Furthermore, it seeks to celebrate sustainable solutions to hunger and poverty.(2) Like The Hunger Project, Embrace Relief knows that resolving hunger and poverty lie at the heart of improving employment opportunities, health, education, social justice, the rights of women and girls, the environment and climate change. In this way, both organizations are aligned with achieving the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Goals 1-5, 8, 10, 13 and 16. These goals are No Poverty, Zero Hunger, Good Health/Well-Being, Quality Education, Gender Equality, Decent Work/Economic Growth, Reduced Inequalities, Climate Action and Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions, respectively.

The hard work of Embrace Relief’s volunteers and donors has been invaluable, without which Embrace Relief would be unable to participate in this or any hunger relief initiatives. As such, the organization asks its followers to continue their support. All of your contributions bring us closer to realize a fuller and more equal world.
