United Way of Greater St. Louis: 100 Neediest Cases Fund
United Way of Greater St. Louis sees how a little extra help and support can help those in the Greater St. Louis region live their best possible lives. Every year, thousands of families and individuals in the St. Louis region need help with basic needs.  There is so much pressure surrounding the holidays, and for some families, it’s near to impossible to meet their basic needs met — let alone have resources for gifts for their children. Through 100 Neediest Cases, a partnership with United Way of Greater St. Louis and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, we can help support individuals and families in the Greater St. Louis region with the necessities they need to have a brighter holiday season. The holidays should be about hope, about bringing happiness to our family, friends, coworkers and neighbors. Through 100 Neediest Cases, we can give hope. WHY IT MATTERS  When you give through 100 Neediest Cases, you help families and individuals relieve stress by giving gifts that so many of us take for granted: rent, utilities, car repairs, a holiday gift, new shoes, gifts for children or buying the warm coat they need. You can be confident your gift is making an impact because all individuals or families helped through the program must have Income 125% of the Federal Poverty Level Guidelines and two documented unmet needs. WHO WE HELP  Together, we can help the more than 4,300 community members in our region this holiday season. You can help families, like M’s. M is 10 years old and lives with her grandmother and an aunt, who has a developmental disability and requires around-the-clock care. The family is paying off a large car repair bill and their home is in disrepair. This holiday season, the family could use financial help to pay the bills. Whether you give $5, $20 or $500, your gift today helps provide a warm holiday meal for a homebound senior, presents under the tree for a single mom and her children, and the basic needs for so many in our community. Make your gift and make somebody’s holiday season. Your gift means more than you think. Support United Way of Greater St. Louis’ 100 Neediest Cases fund.

UN SDG1 : Poverty eradication Fund
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, on top of decades of half measures to fully address systems of inequality, is staggering. The war against Ukraine - in addition to causing untold suffering and devastation - will only aggravate efforts to achieve this mission. The ongoing crisis, and its unfolding repercussions, are only a stark and violent reminder that we need more action now, everywhere. Nearly 100 million more people have been pushed into extreme poverty due to COVID-19, wiping away 6 years of progress. 45 million people are on the brink of starvation. Over 85 million are on the move, fleeing conflict, including nearly 13 million who have fled their homes from Ukraine. There was insufficient progress from world leaders in 2021, despite numerous opportunities at the G7, G20, and COP26 meetings. We have created this fund to improve opportunities for women and girls around the world, address the systemic barriers that keep people in poverty, and halt the climate crisis. Your donation will be addressing these issues by eliminating the barriers that have prevented us from ending extreme poverty and committing to financing levels that will allow for real sustainable progress. Every crisis, and every person living in poverty, deserves to receive our support and solidarity. SOLIDARIEDADE NA MOKILI is a 501 (C) (3) nonprofit organization. Your contribution is tax-deductible.

Children in Yemen are starving to die Fund
Yemen is one of the most food-insecure countries in the world. Long before the conflict began, child malnutrition was widespread. More than 85,000 children have died as a result of the famine as of 2018. The following month, a report by Save the Children estimated that 85,000 children under the age of five have died from starvation and malnutrition. Millions of children in Yemen are at risk of starvation amid the coronavirus pandemic, which is tipping the war-torn nation into further devastation, the United Nations warned, appealing for nearly $500m in urgent humanitarian assistance. Another 6,600 children under the age of five could also die from preventable causes, as the pandemic has weakened the country’s struggling healthcare system and disrupted services. This project gives money to pregnant women and women with children under the age of five, this money to buy food and teaches them about child nutrition. Investing in the future of Yemen’s children by addressing their education, health, and mental well-being needs offer the best chance of ensuring their recovery and the country’s long-term peace and stability. Every time we feed a child, we feed our future. Please join us by investing in the future we all share with a donation to our Yemen Children’s Relief Fund.
