Afghanistan's drought continues and in many provinces the fields lie bare for the third year in a row.
For many - not least many of Afghanistan's children - the current alternative to food aid is starvation. In response to this situation, ACT members have raised some US $ 2.5 million in order to deliver much needed assistance to more than 60,000 families during 2001.
ACT members deliver food aid to some of the most needy people in Afghanistan (for instance widows and their children), they assist villagers re-establish dried out wells and irrigation channels in some of the worst drought affected areas as well as provide shelter materials and basic health care services to poor communities.
