I just finished a big dinner and am feeling so guilty now. This guilt does not stem from the fact that I may have over eaten, but because I know that somewhere in Africa a child cannot sleep because he is so hungry. Just the amount of food I have in my kitchen disgusts me.
Now I don't want to just simply relieve my guilt and make a donation online. I want to go further than that. Ideally, if I could, I would physically transport myself to the poorest African town and do my best to provide the kids with as much food as they could eat. Unfortunately, I can't do this.
I do want to do something that will truly matter and help these kids, help their families, and overall their community. So, I've done some research and am planning to donate what I can. CNN does a nice job of putting a list together of all the charities aiding Africa.
