In a bid to tackle the escalating food insecurity crisis in Nigeria, the Nigerian Red Cross Society (NRCS) has launched an emergency appeal to raise N2.5 billion.
In a statement signed by its Coordinator, Communications and Advocacy, Chima Nwankwo, on Sunday, NRCS said it has launched the fundraiser appeal with the support of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).
The statement noted that the initiative themed: “Keeping Humanity Alive,” aims to provide critical support to vulnerable individuals across the country, focusing on enhancing livelihoods, health, nutrition, and water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services in severely affected regions.
