The world has turned its back on the devastating famine in the Afar desert in Ethiopia which is killing so many women, babies and men. Valerie Browning reports that 70% of pregnant women in the Afar are severely malnourished. There have never been so many maternal deaths in this region. It is a tragic record.
Money is desperately needed to buy food and so a generous donor will donate $1 for every dollar we raise through donations from today until 29 February up to $10,000.
Can you help turn that $10,000 into $20,000 or even $100,000 to help pregnant and nursing mothers and their families in the Afar desert.
Please donate here before the end of February:
