this year I'm doing the 40 hour famine PM me if you would like to sponsor me and help kids in Malawi.
Right now, more than 1.9 million people in southern Malawi don’t have enough food to eat. Unpredictable rainfall, coupled with drought, is hurting the crops in Malawi. Failing crops and dramatically rising food prices have millions trapped in a cycle of poverty.
Children make up half of Malawi’s population and nearly 60 percent of them are living in poverty. Where Dorothy and James live, the soil has been degraded by deforestation and floods, so people have trouble growing enough food.
Half the people living in these districts run out of food before the next harvest is ready. So children like Dorothy and James might eat two meals on a good day, and none on a bad day. Can you imagine only eating three or four days in a week?
