Henry Posted April 19, 2012 Report Posted April 19, 2012 Famine in Africa Eagle awaiting the death of this child to eat him This child who pulls his mother and thought to be dormant and wants to awaken And did not know that his mother had died of hunger and thirst I am Sorry for the dissemination of these images sad
Administrators Koach Posted April 20, 2012 Administrators Report Posted April 20, 2012 That is a very sad picture. Whenever I see something like that, I wish I could do something to help
Stormy Posted April 20, 2012 Report Posted April 20, 2012 There are numerous agencies that try to help. The worst obstacle to actually doing something is the warlords that steal all the aid and ambush and kill relief workers.
Administrators Koach Posted April 21, 2012 Administrators Report Posted April 21, 2012 I agree Stormy. So much of charitable contributions never reaches the people in need
T-Rok Posted April 22, 2012 Report Posted April 22, 2012 These are very sad images but are so real and a fact of life there. This always touches my heart very deeply. I know first hand ( maybe one day I will be able to tell you how ) that there are so many suffering and dying there - the number of deaths each day is horrific which also as a result leaves countless numbers of infants/children without parents or anybody to look after them. It is a vicious cycle. I too so desperately wanted to help and have through Church Missions and Doctors Without Borders the only two that I don't think absorb all the money they get and actually use it towards the cause for which it is intended. I guess there is never a sure way to know just how much does get to places like the needy in Africa but for the two I have sent a donation to can only hope and pray that some of that money actually got used for them.
