There is a famine underway in Somalia. Yes. I understand that famines don’t just happen overnight. This one has been years in the making. Years of crop failures and years of political unrest and mismanagement.

If you are looking for a pretty good analysis of at least part of the problem, click this link to the NPR story.

Hungry children don’t care about the politics that led to their hunger. They only want to eat.

There are a lot of problems in the world we can’t solve.

Hunger is one we can.

Every $10 counts. It feeds somebody. You may already be giving to a charity of your choice that is working on behalf of the starving in Somalia. If you are — thank you.

If you aren’t, you can click this link and donate to World Vision.  This is literally one way you can make an impact on the world.
