The new government of Zimbabwe needs strong international support. Crops are falling and there is a drought coming very soon. 33% of the population of Zimbabwe has AIDS. This year is a critical time to promote peace and take an active approach to help rebuild Zimbabwe and allow for people to have their most basic needs met, such as food, water and medicine.
It is imperative that NGO's do not just send aid, but rather make sure there are NGO's in Zimbabwe responsible for giving the food aid to the people. Please phone 411 to get the number for your local senator and petition for greater support of Zimbabwe.
All people everywhere should have their most basic needs for food, water and medicine met.
Nearly 25,000 people a day all over the world die of hunger relatated causes.
