The Isle of Man is giving £50,000 to help relief efforts for the east African drought.
It's currently affecting Ethiopia, Somalia and Kenya and is the worst for 60 years.
It's been declared a humanitarian emergency and 10 million people are in need of aid.
The money being sent from the Island will go towards improving safe access to water and measures to keep livestock alive and healthy.
