In Pakistan, heavy rains led to flooding.\u00a0 In the Philippines, Typhoon Washi caused many fatalities. In Nicaragua, mudslides and flooding forced many out of their homes. In Turkana, Kenya, widespread food crisis has left millions hungry. In Darfur, violence and displacement have left many without the resources they need to gain the ability to sustain themselves. Emergency food, hygiene kits, school supplies, mosquito nets, and supplemental\u00a0 nutrition to women and children have been the hope so many have needed to continue on.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-3375\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2012\/08\/Food-supplies-in-Nacaragua-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"224\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/cwr\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2012\/08\/Food-supplies-in-Nacaragua-224x300.jpg 224w, http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/cwr\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2012\/08\/Food-supplies-in-Nacaragua.jpg 393w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/>World Relief has also worked in several areas to help in disaster preparedness. In Pakistan after heavy rains caused flooding, World Relief provided aid through food and hygiene kits to many families. Through an additional donation from CWR, after these immediate needs were cared for, World Relief was able to provide cement to families for the stables for their livestock. This cement gave them a sturdy foundation so that future flooding was not so devastating to the area. Wells have been put in place and farmers are working with their partners to reach sustainability. In Darfur, this recovery work has made a special impact in the lives of those affected by the violence. Not only have the people of Darfur receive health care, clean water, and nutritional aid, they have also been given the resources they need to be independent in the future&#8211;seeds, de-worming of donkeys, and hand-pumped wells.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-report-this\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/cwr?moderation_action=report_form&#038;object_type=post&#038;object_id=3372&#038;width=250&#038;height=300\" class=\"thickbox\" title=\"Report This Post\">Report This Post<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In often forgotten areas of the world, disasters can go unnoticed.
