To Help Heal Famine In Africa


I am passionate about the following issues:
Healing hunger & homelessness, the arts



Here are some of the specific ways your donations could help:

    $500 helps us deliver a truckload of water to a drought-stricken town in northeastern Kenya — enough to meet the needs of up to 650 households for a day.

    $150 provides tools and materials to build one latrine in a school, health center or camp for families displaced by the current drought and food crisis.

    $32 trains four Ethiopian farmers in improved agricultural techniques that will increase their food production.

    $15 provides a safe, clean water source for one student at a school or community center in Somalia.

    $14 will vaccinate four cows against disease in Ethiopia.

    $6 provides a severely malnourished child in Ethiopia with four servings of fortified food.

    By joining this group and creating/submitting your art to promote awareness about the Hunger Crisis in Africa
