For some women, those pennies will have the impact of thousands of dollars. I have chosen to donate to microfinancing for entrepeneurs, a model that has proven very successful . We all can help; and for Americans we can give significantly without feeling pain. Please also remember to click on www.thehungersite.org, where money is donated to worthwhile causes just for your clicks.

So thank you Mr.president Bush for drugs to Africa and hope the next President continues the good work. I am sure teaching the people in Africa to cultivate the earth the right way will be very benificial in about 5-10 yrs. But for now they need Medication so give it to them. I am starting what I call my African pot. save $1.00 a week in there and at the end of the year will donate to some world hunger project that is helping with agriculture. Anyone interested in starting your own pot. at the end of he year maybe ONE.ORG can help us donate it.

We are obese, sick, starving and dying around the world for the same reasons. We have destroyed our soil with chemical farming and our immune systems with chemicals, GMOs, food dyes, preservatives, herbicides, pesticides and fertilizers. Those of us (Like myself) who got back to natural farming and safe, nutrient dense foods have pristine health without dangerous drugs. I came out of the grave and out of menopause to have my first child naturally at 47 by cleaning up my consumption act. Now we want to export our madness to Africa, fill the already deep pockets of the drug companies and chemical giants, and pat ourselves on the back for our generous humanitarian effort. Please stop glamorizing this form of genocide! One is doing great work, please wake up to this truth. Please visit my dome garden project on channel eating2heaven on YouTube. I want to drop domes with energy gardens on Africa and put one on the White House lawn to help our lawmakers set an example of health worldwide. Please join me!
