The other night, we watched a news piece on BBC regarding the food shortages in Ethiopia. There are so many families especially children who are starving due to the drought and the soaring food prices. Many of these families live off of less than $2 a day. Can you imagine? Many families are either down to one meal a day or not eating at all. It makes us think how many families we met during our trip are in this situation.
We can not sit back any longer and hope that somebody else will lend a helping hand. Every dollar can help so we decided to rally some good girlfriends and get a charity garage sale in the works. We were already going to have one so why not make it grand and donate 100% of the profit to help with the food crisis. My friends are on board so here we go! We don't have a date yet but I will post when we do. If you want to help, please contact me. We would love any support possible from donations of any kind, to spreading the word, and in helping us find the best charity possible. We want to touch as many lives as we possibly can. Again, every dollar will help.
Here are two links to the new piece on BBC. The first link is the main story and the second link is a follow-up piece. It is very emotional so be sure to grab a tissue before you begin watching it. I made that mistake.
