We close the year 2020 with the kindness of having you through GlobalGiving. It was a very difficult year for everyone, but without your help we could not have made it. The demand for food support was considerably increased in the same proportion that families lost their jobs and their sources of income. During 2020 we provided support to more than 200,000 people and many of them had never had to ask for food assistance.
We are already in 2021 March, COVID_19 has not disappeared and continues to wreak havoc around the world. We had more than 25 years fighting hunger in the region and we have never has to face something like this for so long. The next few weeks and months will be extraordinarily difficult for thousands of our neighbors. Budgets that were already tight due to the pandemic become almost impossible with the addition of the extension of sanitary measures to prevent infections.
This problems can't be solved overnight, but I know that we are doing together can make a difference for people who are to need our help to feed their families.
We are about to celebrate a year in GlobalGiving full of thanks from behalf of all the families who received food support thanks to you decided to believe in our project.
I want to use this opportunity through this report, first of all reiterating our gratitude and inviting you to celebrate this anniversary with us, from March 8-12, when you give up to $50 to support this project, GlobalGiving will match your generosity up to 50% for the #LittleByLittle campaign.
Thank you for making a commitment to help out during this difficult time.
