Syrian child at refugee camp. |
Imagine this, the WORLD FOOD PROGRAM, part of the UN, has run out of money. What to do when so many people depend on you? That's right about 1.7 million Syrian refugees have been relying on the UN food agency for basic support, enough food to survive.
In a recent speech, UN Deputy Secretary-General Jan Eliasson said, "The humanitarian landscape is darkening and changing faster than ever before." More and more people are in need of basic safety net assistance.
But in this one instance, to help Syrian refugees, it won't take very much, just one dollar. If everyone, who can afford it, gives just one dollar (that's 64 million people around the world), that little bit will feed the more than 1 million Syrian refugees.
So, how can all of us help this cause? World Food Program Director Ertharin Cousin states, "Even one dollar can make a difference. We're saying to people: 'For you it's a dollar, for them it's a lifeline.'" So go HERE, watch the video, and donate your dollar. Then visit your facebook and/or twitter page and replace your facebook profile picture with one of the badges on the page. Oh, and urge your friends to do the same. Millions of lives depend on what you decide to do.
