What would you do if you looked into the eyes of a starving child. A child whose pain was so great that the feeling of pain only told them that they were still alive, still waiting, still hoping, still praying? Would you help them? Would you give them a meal, and home, a simple and gentle smile, a helping hand? Would you give them hope? Thousands of these children are dieing everyday while we all sit in the comfort of our own very lives. Food overflowing from cabinets. Homes that are cool in the summer, warm in the winter, dry when it’s wet out. Please don’t loose that image of the child, a belly swollen from hunger, eyes as blank and dark as the night sky. Give today, supoort forever, and help the children of our neighbors. Remember, strangers are only friends we have not yet had the honor of meeting.
Traditionally in Ethiopian culture, the kinship within extended families was strong and orphans were cared for within the family. However, the increasing number of orphans and the deteriorating living standard of the Ethiopian people have created a condition where extended families are unable to provide even the minimal basic care for orphans.
