Who is giving to the Horn of Africa crisis?

 The famine crisis in the Horn of Africa still continues and experts in the field still say there needs to be more money. The UN estimates that 12.4 million people need humanitarian assistance and $2.5 billion aid is needed to reach these people. That's $1.4 billion more than what has been committed to so far.

So who is giving? The Guardian has been keeping tabs on which countries are giving and how much. (See IBM's interactive chart below for data from OCHA or download the full spreadsheet here.)



Topping the list is the United States with a committment of almost 400 million dollars to the region. But more of this committment is going to Ethiopia and Kenya, rather than Somalia. Following behind, the UK has given over 111 million to the region and the EU has given over 91 million.

Who will step up to help fill that $1.4 billion gap of aid?
