I think it would be very nice if we could drilla bunch of water wells in Somalia and teach them how to grow crops to feed their own!! Whats wron with this picture, hell we help everybody else, is it because they are people of color? Also the reason President Obama can't get anything done or pasted is because he's a Black man, that's plan and simple.
This model has not been back to her homeland for 20 years but we are suppose to support it? Sorry – I'll support efforts to fight the famine but not because "the model" has told me to.
The situation in Somalia is heartbreaking. How can I, and others who were moved by your reporting, help? What is the best organization to make a donations for this cause?
i don't really know what to say but pray for everyone that is suffering around the globe....even if i can't afford anything financially i am willing to help in the translation part' cause i speak 5 different language including somalian so please contact me if needed.
While my husband & I are not mean cruel or heartless people I think it is very sad that we here in America & many others work our butts off & struggle for everything we have... look at all of the Americans who are homeless... hungry & sick without help... we have no health insurance to help us... our cost of living goes up every day w/out our salaries being increased to help pay the extra... when the price of gas rocketed sky high the cost of food also did... but now that gas prices have gone down some has the cost of food gone down... how about utilities... higher & higher but our salaries have not been increased again... don't you think we should focus on our people & help them 1st instead of always feeding those in foreign countries... come on wake up... we the American people need help just as much but do we see those countries taking care of us... what's wrong w/that picture... they could care less about us... America needs to help Americans 1st... w/out America where would they be... sorry but it's really getting old to always watch poor pitiful them !!!!
How can we donate to help these HUMANS IN NEED OF THE WORLDS HELP?
