SOUTHFIELD, Mich., July 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Increased global conflicts, climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic have once again caused world hunger to rise. More than 800 million people do not have enough food to eat, approximately 200 million are malnourished, and nearly 50 million are on the verge of starvation, with refugees and children from poverty-stricken and war-torn countries being some of the most affected populations.

Helping Hand for Relief and Development Battles Hunger Crisis Through Meat Distribution

In 2021, Helping Hand for Relief and Development (HHRD) provided 1.26 million meals for over 280,000 people across 73 countries and refugee populations through its annual Global Qurbani (meat distribution) program.

HHRD's international teams work day and night to prepare and distribute meat shares, sponsored by donors, to communities that need it most. For many, this is the only time of year when they are even able to eat a decent meal, much less one consisting of the luxury of meat. Packages, given to over 60 countries, provide nourishing meals to orphans, widows, refugees, and vulnerable populations across the globe; special packages are available for those in urgent need.

Countries and populations being helped by HHRD include Pakistan, Jordan, Djibouti, Philippines, Afghanistan, India, Gaza, Albania, Myanmar (Burma), Cambodia, Indonesia, Nepal, Peru, Haiti, Sri Lanka, Somalia, Uganda, Kenya, South Sudan Refugees in Kenya, Syrian Refugees in Jordan, Iraqi Refugees in Jordan, Palestinian Refugees in Lebanon & Jordan, Yemini Refugees in Djibouti/Jordan/Somalia, Venezuelan Refugees in Peru, Rohingya Refugees in Nepal and many more.
