North Korea: Food for Children
Dorcas and ORA will provide a meal for 1,700 poor children a day (6 days/week) for the coming year, beginning in June 2008 until May 2009. That's 44,200 meals a month!
The work is implemented through a local organization.
North Korea has spent more than five decades cut off from the world. It is so secretive that no one knows exactly how many people died in the famine of the 1990s. Now the population faces another food and humanitarian crisis after a poor harvest that has caused food prices to skyrocket. This is why Dorcas responds!
According to the WFP (World Food Programme), more than 35% of the population in North Korea is undernourished.
