So how about it Daily Kos? Have a minute or two? Care enough to click? I know you do.
The need could not be more urgent. 29,000 children under the age of 5 starved to death during the last 90 days in East Africa.
Someone once said to me that the worst sight in the world was a hungry mother trying to nurse a hungry, crying baby. In East Africa, and particularly Somalia, this is the scenario being played out each day now.
Mothers and fathers, having literally run out of options when it comes to providing the basics for their children, are burying them instead of being able to nurture them.

Your rec, and if you can, your donation, will help feed and shelter the starving children of East Africa. Your rec, and donation will save a baby's life and their parents' hearts.
Please, do you have a minute? Can you help? Will you help save a child's life?
