Aid in action: alleviating famine in Somalia
September 27, 2011
Last month, we asked you to demonstrate your support for the international affairs budget by pitching in to fund Oxfam America’s work to deal with the food crisis in East Africa. Together, along with sending a strong message to the Senate, we raised enough money to build eighteen wells.
Oxfam America has put up new photos documenting the real difference that funding is making, bringing water and sanitation facilities to an estimated 11,000 people in a refugee camp. Check out the report here.
