I don't think that only providing food and medical treatments is the way to go here. Without educating them to be able to self sustain themselves, the approach of providing them food and vaccines is just perpetuating and amplifying the crisis.
Let's say the funds to overcome the present crisis are found and are enough for a year. What will happen then? All those millions of people survived and another few million children are born. The amount of funds needed this year will not be enough anymore next year and the crisis will be even bigger.
