East Africa Famine Appeal Dinner

 Dear Friends,

Please see attached invite to this East Africa famine Appeal dinner. All proceeds after costs will go to UNICEF East Africa Appeal.

East Africa is in the grips of one of the worst food security crises in the world today. Across Somalia, Ethiopia, Kenya and Djibouti 12.4 million people, more than half the Australian population, are affected by the devastating crisis, including over 2 million children.

In Southern Somalia a famine has been declared and 600,000 children are on the brink of death, suffering from severe acute malnutrition.

The crisis is caused by the convergent effects of the worst droughts, soaring food prices and the ongoing armed conflict within the country.

Two emergencies are developing – one in over crowed camps for Somali refugees and another in the drought affected villages where lack of water, failed crops and dying livestock has resulted in a lack in food.

Your kind support is most appreciated especially by the children in need.

Yours faithfully

 Shaoquett Moselmane MLC
