Although barely anyone reads this blog...
Feed Just One is an amazing organization that helps feed starving people all around the world.
The Need: Over 800 million people are starving worldwide. A child dies every 3 seconds of hunger.
The Problem: Most aid programs currently available require a commitment of $35 a month that your average person either can't or isn't willing to commit to. Schools and orphanages are trying on their own with little or no aid and children are "lucky" to get 3 meals a week. It has been said that 5 meals a week would be a miracle.
The Solution: You can provide a meal to a starving child through Feed Just One for only 4 cents. One meal a day costs just 28 cents a week, $1.20 a month or $14.60 a year.
ALL of the money donated through Feed Just One will be given directly to Feed My Starving Children (FMSC.org) to go towards shipping meals to starving children around the world. Feed Just One keeps NONE of this money aside from a small portion of the sticker and t-shirt sales to cover our costs and operating expenses with the rest going directly to FMSC.
For every person who requests to add them as a friend on myspace, they will donate one meal. If you make them a sign, they will donate 30 meals. You can also buy things from their store (shirts, stickers, bracelets) to help support them.
They're having a holiday sale right now. It's your chance to buy a great gift for someone that will also save lives around the world. Most everything is in stock and ready to ship and everything ordered by 12/10 will arrive by Christmas.
Also, when you buy something, put in the code "Hannah" to help me out.Please help save some lives, and buy something. The things in the store aren't expensive.
