Did you know this was happening in Africa?


Famine is happening today, right now, and we need to help them


Young women are raped and then left to die with their fingers cutted





A teenager victim of the violence and the horror










Babies who survive the famine, are very few













A child dies every three seconds...the time it takes you to read this











Men victims of the Sierra Leone violence




Women, like the young girl in the photo
are victims as well as men.
The 'signature" these beasts leave behind is many victims with their hands and feet cutted off.
