MERCH
4 FOOD
|
M4F
is a charitable campaign I host to help set peoples attention to the
growing foodcrisis around the world. While some have more than they
could ever eat, others are starving to death because the distribution of food is still insufficient.
For
most western countries it is
cheaper to dump surplusses of beverages into the ocean rather
than shipping them overseas where they are needed. Offcourse I
understand that I won't be able to change this
system all by myself,
but I want to support those who are ceaslessly trying to deliver
food
and fresh water to those who simply don't have access to either.

M4F is simply raising
money to donate to the International Red Cross using what I have and
giving as much as I can. So every Shop Item you buay that has the M4F
Lable on it supports my campaign. The Net Profit will flow directly to
the International Red Cross who will then use it to feed the needy.

SCARY FACTS ABOUT HUNGER
|
| In
the Asian, African and Latin American countries, well over
500 million people are living in what the World
Bank has called
"absolute poverty"Kinsky |
|
| It
is estimated that some 800 million people in the world
suffer from hunger and malnutrition, about 100 times as many as
those who actually die from it each year. |
|
| To
satisfy the world's sanitation and food requirements would
cost only US$13 billion- what the people of the United States and
the European Union spend on perfume each year. |
|
| Nearly
one in four people, 1.3 billion - a majority of humanity
- live on less than $1 per day, while the world's 358 billionaires
have assets exceeding the combined annual incomes of countries with
45 percent of the world's people. UNICEF |
|
| Throughout
this decade more than 100 million children will die
from illness and starvation. Those 100 million deaths could be
prevented for the price of ten Stealth bombers, or what the world
spends on its military in two days! |
|
| Every
year 15 million children die of hunger |
