Like many families in Malawi\u2019s southern region, Peter\u2019s life took a difficult turn when El Ni\u00f1o-induced drought and floods struck the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI watched almost all my fields get washed away. The little that was left did not survive,\u201d Peter shared. \u201cFarming, which used to sustain my family, was no longer reliable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As food became scarce and maize prices soared beyond his reach, Peter\u2019s once stable life began to spiral. He relied on his traditional mat weaving business to make ends meet, but even that became a challenge. The raw materials he used, usually sourced from nearby riverbanks, were washed away by floods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLife was unbearable. I was living in fear, not knowing where the next meal for my children would come from,\u201d he recalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But then came a ray of hope, through the El Ni\u00f1o Emergency Response Program. With support from Presbyterian World Service &amp; Development and Canadian Foodgrains Bank, Peter\u2019s family and 1,700 other vulnerable households received MK90,000 [about $71] monthly, through cash transfers which were distributed between November 2024 to March 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"897\" src=\"https:\/\/presbyterian.ca\/pwsd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_7969-1024x897.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6568\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5;object-fit:cover;width:425px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/presbyterian.ca\/pwsd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_7969-1024x897.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/presbyterian.ca\/pwsd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_7969-300x263.jpg 300w, https:\/\/presbyterian.ca\/pwsd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_7969-768x673.jpg 768w, https:\/\/presbyterian.ca\/pwsd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_7969-1536x1346.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/presbyterian.ca\/pwsd\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_7969-2048x1794.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe cash transfer changed everything,\u201d Peter said with a smile. \u201cI was able to buy food for my family, pay my children\u2019s school fees and slowly rebuild my life. Just look at me now\u2014so healthy!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a wheelchair user, Peter also took a moment to appreciate CARD\u2019s commitment to inclusivity. \u201cI am especially grateful that CARD did not leave behind people with disabilities,\u201d he said. \u201cLife is already hard for us and finding food is even harder. This help came at the right time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Peter\u2019s story is one of many, but it stands as a powerful reminder that timely humanitarian support can restore dignity, hope and health to those hit hardest by climate shocks. Thanks to the cash transfer program, Peter is living with a renewed sense of purpose for his family\u2019s future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by PWS&amp;D partner Churches Action in Relief and Development (CARD), Malawi Meet Peter Simon, a 56-year-old father of four from Kumbewe Village, in the Balaka district of Malawi.
