Day 130: Fighting Hunger with CARE in Africa

Click photo to view an enlarged versionCARE is a leading humanitarian organization fighting global poverty in 87 countries around the world. It was founded in 1945 to provide relief to survivors of WW II, and has since become recognized as a global charity with a lifesaving mission to serve individuals and families in the poorest communities world wide. CARE is currently running a campaign in Sherborn to assist the food crisis in Ethiopia, and it was an easy decision to participate in the fundraising effort. Clearly, no donation is too paltry when, as the CARE  literature states, "Just 31 cents can provide a hot, nutritious meal for a hungry, hurting child."   So Bianca, Olivia and Sophia were all happy to contribute to the "every-little-bit-counts-check" that Paul and I were happy to write.
