We can’t stay without one drop of water or a scrap of food for weeks.
So just think about Somalia people who are dying out of hunger and
thirst. East Africa is suffering from the worst humanitarian crises in
decades. Several seasons of drought have destroyed crops and domestic
animals in Somalia, putting tens of thousands of immigrants to seek help
in camps in neighboring Kenya and Ethiopia. As well, more than 11
million people are in danger of starvation and malnutrition. Several
parts of southern Somalia are declared to be in a state of famine. They
all need support from us; make a lifesaving donation today with a simple click to help Famine in Somalia 2011.
