This past August we distributed meat to families in need across the Horn of #Africa region. Providing food for over 137,000 people.

But your impact is not measured by numbers only; but by the smile it produces, and the change it brings to better a person's life.

@vikings Can you help us honor one of our young volunteer with tickets to a game? (maybe some merch also 👀) He is a huge fan!
Abdirahman has been volunteering and helping us for the last several years since he was in elementary school.

His mom has been a staff member here for over the last decade, and he would come into to our office after school almost every day. We would assign him small office tasks here and there, and sometimes he would even volunteer at major events.

But when he came to the office on Thur/Fri, he would spend some time writing his gameday prediction on the whiteboard in the conference room. Not just the score, but detailed stat prediction; interceptions, receiving yardage, passing yardage, defensive stats etc!

On the day following the game, some of our staff members would chit-chat with him regarding the outcome of the #Vikings game and see which stats he got right, and which he didn't. It was awesome seeing his reaction.

And obviously, the conversation got a lot more interesting when it was it was time for #borderbattle against the #Packers. 😆

But what stood out most was the joy, and enthusiasm you could see in his face when he was preparing the game stats... You could sense the love of the game.

We have seen him grow right before our eyes, and now he is a freshman in high school and turning into a well rounded young man. We wanted to do something special for him, so we hope you accept our request 🙂. #Skol

#Repost The students in one of the refugee camps asked for printer, computer and copy machine for their camp because they got so tired of commuting 3 hours one way just to get papers printed for their exams. So happy RefuCare teamed up with @araharelief to provide them what they asked for! Team work makes the dream work! Swipe right.

Thank you!

In 2013 during one of our emergency relief efforts in #somalia, rain started to pour, but people were eager to recieve the aid, and the need was much great...even in this condition--wet, tired, hungry and displaced-- they still kept their smile....we look back on these kind of moments and appreciate all the small things in life.

How would you celebrate one of the best days of your life; your #WeddingDay?
Rather than accepting traditional gifts, Huda and Muaz decided to ask their guests to donate. In total-along with their guests, they raised enough funds to feed 550 kids at a school in #Sudan.

Elders are keepers of history, guardians of culture and languages in many parts of the Horn of Africa region. We must cherish them, revere them, protect them, care for them, and love them.

Our team in #Sudan recently installed solar roofs at our high school in Shegarab refugee camp. The Solar roofs will provide lights for the classroom, fans to keep them cool on a hot summer day, keep the computers running, and much more.
We would like to thank the Eritrean Muslims Council for funding this great project and providing a sustainable solution.

In December 2018, our program director had a chance to visit our field offices in the Horn of Africa region. During this visit, he had a chance to chat with students at Mogadishu University on the impact of the thousands of textbooks donated by ARAHA.
Students expressed how the new textbooks helped them better understand the subjects they were learning and how it has helped them inprove their grades. Prior to the donated books, students were using outdated textbooks from the 50s and 60s
