Mothers' Union Annual Review 2008/9

Bringing the world home!

Whatever your personal circumstances,whether you already have a home or whether you
are still searching - home is an ideal everyone can embrace. More than a dwelling, home is the place we belong, where we feel safe, supported and secure.

Yet that ideal still remains an unfulfilled dream for too many in our global family.

Today:-

Over 1 billion people are homeless
22.7 million people are displaced
982 million people live in dire poverty
854 million people are malnourished
An estimated 44 million are orphans
Millions of children experience the breakdown of their parents' relationships

These numbers are shamefully high, and can seem overwhelming, yet all of these people need "home"

Mothers' Union is an international Christian charity devoted to doing all it can to make a better world for families.
