| | | In Gaza, Clean Water Is a LifelineFor a young boy named Adham, getting water for his family means walking through Gaza's streets alone while his mother waits anxiously at home, watching the clock until he's safely back. She calls him her brave boy. But no child should have to be brave just to bring water home, and that's the reality families in Gaza face every day. It's why WCK keeps showing up. Our teams recently opened a new distribution point in North Gaza, bringing safe drinking water to harder-to-reach areas where ongoing shortages have made every gallon count, delivering thousands of gallons to displaced families each day. Since 2023, WCK has distributed more than 7 million gallons of clean water across Gaza, testing and monitoring every batch to make sure it's safe before it reaches anyone. For many families, these sites are their only source of water for drinking and cooking. |

| | | | WCK Reaches Nepal's Hardest-Hit VillagesIn Gre, a remote community along Nepal's Trishuli River, flooding destroyed the local markets families relied on for daily necessities, leaving them cut off with no outside support. WCK's trekking team from the Royal Beach Club spent six days hiking through the hardest-hit areas of northern Nepal, and mapped out four separate communities—over 2,900 people—who were still waiting for help. Gre was one of them. Since then, WCK has made regular helicopter deliveries of rice, oil, soap, medical supplies, and school supplies for children, making sure families have what they need to recover.
Join WCK’s Karen and John for a check-in from Gre. |

| | More Than One Million Meals Served in the DRCAmid the country's largest Ebola outbreak, WCK has served more than one million meals to patients, healthcare workers, displaced families, and children across the DRC. Working with trusted local partners like Panzi Foundation and Good News for Africa, our teams prepare familiar dishes like fufu, fish, and rice, using local ingredients and recipes that connect communities to culture and tradition. "A meal can be a simple but powerful act of care," said Juan Camilo Jimenez, WCK's Response Director. Every meal is a reminder that people are not alone. Learn more about WCK’s work in the DRC. |

| | Ukraine: Meeting Families Wherever Crisis StrikesAs Russian attacks escalate, train journeys across Ukraine are growing longer, delayed by air-raid alerts and damage to infrastructure, and WCK is there with hot meals, shelf-stable meal kits, and water, supporting dozens of trains every week for passengers and railway workers. For families on the front lines, attacks often strike in the middle of the night, leaving them suddenly without homes, food, water, or the ability to cook, which is why WCK's Frontline Kits are built with meals that need no cooking at all. |

| | | Chef Prinvil Lights the Stove in HaitiIn Haiti's lower Artibonite region, Chef Prinvil has dedicated his time to serving members of his community, an area impacted by violence and displacement. He knows many families have left behind their gardens and livestock, so he puts everything he has into providing comforting meals as they navigate this uncertain period. Through WCK's partnership with Hôpital Albert Schweitzer, Chef Prinvil cooks in Community Kitchens, sourcing ingredients from local farmers and distributors. Despite unpredictable violence and rising fuel costs, every morning at 5 a.m., his stove is lit, and the meals keep coming. Watch Chef Prinvil share why cooking for neighbors who've lost everything matters most. |

| | Neighbors Feeding Neighbors in LebanonAt WCK's kitchen in Kfour, Lebanon, many of the cooks serving impacted families each day have been forced to flee their own homes, yet they arrive with compassion to care for their neighbors, serving hot meals even through the most difficult times. WCK's locally led model, sourcing from Lebanese farmers and staffing kitchens with displaced community members, remains one of the few large-scale food relief systems still operating consistently across the country. Since the escalation of hostilities on March 2, WCK has served over two million meals across Lebanon. Visit our kitchen in Kfour. |
