Almost a quarter of a century since Ethiopia suffered the devastating famine that led to Live Aid concerts around the world and an outpouring of global generosity, a tenth of Ethiopia’s population is at risk of starvation.
After three successive years of drought, the landscape is parched and desolate and temperatures soar above 50 degrees.
For the first time in a generation famine has hit the capital Addis Ababa. The price of food has increased three fold. People queue throughout the night for government subsidized wheat.
Save the Children is leading the way in providing relief to Ethiopians suffering. Don't wait. Don't make an excuse. Just pick up your credit card right now and make a donation of $25 with the widget to the left. Thanks.
