Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

WATCHING THE TRUTH OF WHATS HAPPENING NOW IN EAST AFRICA WAS TOO MUCH TO JUST DONATE AND MOVE ON... I WANT TO GET AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE TO JOIN ME AND DONATE NOW. SAVE A LIFE, NOW. SPREAD THE WORD, SAVE ANOTHER LIFE, NOW. I HAVE SET THIS PAGE UP SO ANYONE CAN DONATE DIRECTLY TO DEC WHO ARE PUTTING EVERY PENNY OF DONATIONS TO IMMEDIATE GOOD USE TO SAVE LIVES. THE FIRST DONATION IS FROM MY 8 YEAR OLD SON, WHO GAVE ME HIS POCKET MONEY AS HE WANTED TO SAVE A LIFE AFTER READING THIS AS I WROTE IT. 


RIGHT NOW, ACROSS EAST AFRICA, DROUGHT, WAR & LACK OF FOOD MEAN 16 MILLION PEOPLE ARE ON THE BRINK OF STARVATION & NEED FOOD, WATER & MEDICAL TREATMENT NOW...

MORE THAN 800, 000 CHILDREN, UNDER 5 YEARS OLD, ARE SEVERELY MALNOURISHED & DESPERATLEY NEED IMMEDIATE LIFE SAVING FOOD. WITHOUT IMMEDIATE TREATMENT THEY ARE AT RISK OF STARVING TO DEATH

£25 COULD PROVIDE A MONTH'S SUPPLY OF LIFE SAVING PEANUT PASTE TO A MALNOURISHED CHILD

£60 COULD PROVIDE CLEAN DRINKING WATER FOR TWO FAMILIES FOR A MONTH

£100 COULD PROVIDE SUPPLIES TO A CLINIC TREATING SEVEREY MALNOURISHED CHILDREN FOR A WEEK
