Dear friends,
The team have now succesfully distributed food to the total value of R80 000! And all of the target villages have been reached.
We thank God for this miracle.
Unfortunetly the team's time is up and they need to move on to catch their flight to Ethiopia.
The fact of the matter is that there are still millions of people on the brink of starvation. I recently read this article http://m.news24.com/NEWS24/Africa/News/10m-in-need-of-food-aid-20100611 on News 24 which describes the emergency that Niger now finds itself in.
We cannot ignore the pleas of the people, even though the team is not there.
With all of this in mind why don't we raise our target amount to R150 000? When the money is raised we can send a team specifically to Niger to distribute the food or next years' Explore Africa
team can do it.
Let us do more for those suffering in Niger!
Greetings,
Willem
