Striving Against Starvation 2024
According to the World Health Organisation, 828 million people worldwide are under-nourished and exist on less than £1 a day.
For just £10 you can provide a family of four with a food parcel for one whole week. That’s just £1.43 for a substantial daily meal for a family of four.
Striving Against Starvation, our annual food parcel programme, provides aid to the poorest and most deprived communities. This year, our focus is predominantly Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Chad, India, Iraq, Kenya, Lebanon, Madagascar, Nepal, Pakistan, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Syria, Tanzania, West Africa, Yemen as well as the United Kingdom, where we are working with food banks and refugee support.
Each food parcel will contain a combination of the below items:
Rice, Oil, Sugar, Flour, Spaghetti, Tea, Dates, Lentils and Beans
Conflict, the cost of living and soaring fertilizer prices are combining to create a food crisis of unprecedented proportions. Natural disasters have also devastated communities and exacerbated the need for further food and medical aid.
At Beta Charitable Trust we are committed to supporting the worst affected vulnerable communities and we cannot do this without your help.
In 2020, with your support, we exceeded expectations and contributed a total of £147,617 and provided over 4,000 food parcels.
In 2021, we further exceeded expectations by your kind generosity and contributed 4,500 food parcels throughout the United Kingdom and abroad.
In 2022, we were able to distribute 4, 760 of food parcels.
In 2023, we were able to distribute food parcels that reached 7,625 families!
