| About this scrapbook page: |
|
The disaster on The Horn of Africa (Somalia) is indescribable due to civil war and drought. The rainy season is overdue and people are on the run and the worst affected are the children. I must say I was deeply touched when I saw the news on TV yesterday from a refugee camp in Kenya. Therefore, I decided to create this page, I hope I not offend anyone with it.We can help to save someone's life
If we support MedecinsSansFrontieres, RedCross or SaveTheChildren

Not offended a bit, but so sad. We, here in America, are so very blessed and don't even have an inkling of the suffering others go thru. Even though we're going thru our own crisis right now it's nothing compared to those poor little ones over there. God bless your for showing us once again that 2/3 of our world are in terrible need. Great page, Pelle.

Thanks Iain, Yes we are there for 3 months every year but the drought is over for Uganda as it recently rained and although crops have been destroyed or failed they are in a better position than these souls.. Not out of the woods but... Pelle - your page is so thought provoking and it was images like these that sparked our involvement. God bless you for your hopes and your caring heart. Diane x

Thank you Pelle for posting this heart wrenching page. It is the children who suffer in these times - but it's always hard to know what we ordinary people can do to help. Those who can will hopefully take heed.

I heard that there are over 4 million in need of food and the political situation makes it difficult to get the aid to them. Praying the resources get to them. Social awareness aside this page is beautifully put together.

WOW!! A REAL EYE OPENER! I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THE NEWS LATELY WHICH IS SOMETHING I DONT DO ALL OF THE TIME BUT, I THINK IT IS SO IMPORTANT THAT WE ALL ARE AWARE OF THE POVERTY, THE NATURAL DISASTERS,THE FACT THAT SOOO MANY PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE HOMELESS AND JOBLESS. TIMES ARE TOUGH, AND, WHO IS GOING TO HELP OR GET INVOLVED IF WE ALL LEAVE IT TO SOMEONE ELSE?? GREAT PAGE PELLE!

Thank you Pelle for posting this remarkable page, raising awareness for the plight of these people and their children. We simply can't imagine such horrific conditions but information such as this in your page begs us to stop and do something. Already in support but it won't do me any harm to pledge what I would have squandered on kits.Thank you for your humanitarian plea Pelle, you are a good man
