Bloggers Unite For Africa
Garth on Emerging Blurb has come up with a practical way that those of us who are interested in the problem's in Niger (and Africa in general) can do something. You can find out about this at Blogger's United For Africa or on his blog. His suggestion includes having a garage sale and donating the money to one of the agencies that is delivering food to the needy. A good idea.
SIM is one of the agencies that has a designated project to work in this area. Not to knock any of the other agencies that are doing a great job but I really do like the way SIM is handling this. They are giving the food to the local church to distribute so that it's Nigerien's helping their own people and testifying of God's love for them as they go. Information on this can be found here.
