Action by Church Together is responding to the slow onslaught of drought in Tanzania and Kenya. The government of Kenya has declared a disaster that may affect 2 million people.
A-C-T has sent $50,000 through Tanganyika Christian Refugee Service which will provide a supply of short- term drought resistant seeds for planting this month.
A food assessment mission found that some 280,000 people are likely to be, or already are, suffering from food shortage in the rural Arusha and Kilimanjaro areas of Northern Tanzania, areas inhabited by small-scale farmers.
