Food

IFC has provided provided countless truckloads of emergency food rations to the refugee camps and other refugees. A large part of the relief we bring is food supplies to the hungry. There has been real concern over the problems of malnutrition.

We recognize that food provision is a temporary answer to a larger problem. IFC is committed to helping the refugees return to their home lands or resettlement communities, where they can begin to provide for their own livelihood.

Other food projects supply seed and expert agricultural education. Having lost homes and land, many refugees are without tools used to provide food for their families. IFC has replaced some farm tools and fishing equipment. The cost to feed a family of five is approximately one U.S. dollar a day.
