R. Hunter -- 

Right now in the Sahel, there are 9,157 more women and young children receiving nutritious food for the next 100 days thanks to donations made by our online community. ThatÃ¢ÂÂs 9,157 more people who wonÃ¢ÂÂt go to bed hungry. 

With your help, I think we can do more.

The Dutch National Postcode Lottery agrees. They were so impressed by your response to this emergency that they decided to extend the matching deadline and TRIPLE all donations through tomorrow.

I think we can reach our goal of feeding 12,500 women and children, but only with your help. Make a donation that will go three times as far:

If we can help families through the lean season, we give them a chance. HereÃ¢ÂÂs how: 

Your gift of $50 becomes $150, and provides three women with the nutrition they need to grow stronger and nurse their babies.
Your gift of $100 becomes $300, and gives six young children the right food to help them battle back from malnutrition.
But only if you give by midnight tomorrow. 

From Mauritania to Cameroon, Mali to Niger, we are making an impact. Many of our colleagues in the Sahel (you might have heard from some of them recently) are reporting that despite the hardships faced, there is hope.

For women like Fattimah, the past few months have been especially difficult. Seven months pregnant when she fled conflict and drought in her village in Mali, she says that back home Ã¢ÂÂthe markets are empty and there is no more food in the shops.Ã¢ÂÂ Now, receiving WFPÃ¢ÂÂs specially fortified food for pregnant and nursing mothers, she and her new baby have a chance. 

Thank you for your ongoing commitment to women like Fattimah and for your support when we need you the most. 

Sincerely, 

Alma Jane Shepard
