Some Families Left With Only the Clothes They Wore

Dear Donors,

Thank you for remembering Nigerian families who have been forced from their homes by violence.

When an attack comes, families do not have time to pack properly.

A mother may grab her children.

A father may carry whatever he can.

And then they run.

Many families have arrived in safer places with little more than the clothes they were wearing. The homes they knew, the farms they depended on and the belongings they worked for may all be left behind.

More than 3.7 million people were internally displaced in Nigeria as of July 2026. Benue alone hosts at least 500,000 displaced people, while several other states continue to receive families escaping violence.

For some of these families, finding food is now a daily struggle.

Some sleep under trees or in makeshift shelters. Others have no proper cooking facilities or safe place to keep their belongings.

This project will provide emergency food, household supplies and temporary shelter to displaced families.

Food items and charcoal stoves will help families prepare meals, while temporary housing will support people who are sleeping in unsafe conditions.

Children, women and older people will receive special consideration.

No family should have to flee violence and then face hunger without help.

Thank you for standing with families who have lost their homes and livelihoods.

Please share this project with others who may want to help.

With gratitude,
Elijah Osagie

Families Displaced by Crisis Need Food Now

Dear Donors,

Thank you for caring about Nigerian families who have been forced from their homes by violence and insecurity.

For families living in displacement, hunger does not wait. Parents wake up not knowing where the next meal will come from. Children may go through the day without enough food. Older people who have lost their homes and livelihoods face the same uncertainty.

As of July 2026, more than 3.7 million people were internally displaced across Nigeria. Benue alone is home to at least 500,000 displaced people, while communities in Borno, Plateau, Kaduna, Zamfara and other states continue to face displacement and insecurity.

Behind these numbers are real families who have lost farms, homes, businesses and belongings.

Some are living in makeshift shelters, under trees or in other unsafe places. They need food, a safe place to sleep and basic household supplies.

Through this project, Clarion Times Foundation plans to provide emergency food and household items to displaced families. Families will receive food supplies and charcoal stoves for preparing meals. Temporary shelter support will also be provided to families who have nowhere safe to sleep.

Children, women and older people will receive special consideration during the distribution of assistance.

Your support can help a parent put food on the table tonight. It can help a child have a meal after days of uncertainty. It can give a displaced family a safer place to sleep while they work toward rebuilding their lives.

Thank you for standing with families who have lost so much. Your support gives them a reason to keep going.

Please consider sharing this project with someone who may be able to help. Every donation and every share can help us reach more families facing hunger.

With gratitude,
Elijah
