More than 609,000 people are estimated to be at risk of food shortages and requiring humanitarian assistance in Mauritania, especially because of droughts. The number of children facing acute malnutrition this year has doubled to 55,110 at-risk children. This increase is due to the combined effects of food insecurity and the coronavirus pandemic.
 
My name is Abdullah Ahmed, however to see what is happening to the people of Mauritania is horrific and breaks my heart. To see children starving to death and seeing their ribs and bones sticking out of their body leaves me speechless. to help feed the starving people of Mauritania. please help anyway you can.
