Correct!
During and after the Second World War, fresh foods like milk, eggs and butter were in short supply. Powdered milk was a ration staple and provided a great alternative for a nice cup of English tea - hurrah!
Whilst WWII was a long time ago, the need for CARE Packages around the world is just as great today as it was back in the 1940s. Millions of women need urgent access to basic supplies like food, drinking water and hygiene items.
Your donations mean that from food to housing to healthcare, women get the support they need to build a life and to shape a better future. Thank you.
