Being Thankful For Food

Save the Children is the leading independent organization creating lasting change in the lives of children in need in the U.S. and around the world.

 

The Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that over 840 million people - about one sixth of the population of the world's developing nations - are malnourished. Over 200 million of them are children.

 

In an emergency such as a flood, earthquake, hurricane, pandemic, or starvation, Save The Children responds to the needs (survival, protection and the well being) of children.

 

Welcome to The Ladies Of the House Lens. We've entered it into the Squidoo Thanksgiving Cook-Off (for charity). If we are selected, Save The Children receives $1000. We hope you enjoy, and if you do, don't be shy; spread the word.

Giving Thanks For The Food We Receive 

Full Hearts - Fill Tummies

This lens was created to raise awareness and funds for Save The Children.

Children all over the world go to bed with empty tummies. The holidays bring this home like no other time on the calendar. We stuff ourselves like a holiday turkey while children are malnourished.

Malnutrition, and in extreme cases, stunting, is evidence of the permanent physical harm done to children and their future potential to live healthy and productive lives. The basic needs of children must be met, adequate food supplies, shelter, clean water and medication. Things we take for granted.

When you pull the wishbone this year think of the children. Make a small sacrifice for them. Skip a latte or brown-bag it to work or school and donate those few dollars. They could make a world of change in the life of a hungry child.

To paraphrase Horton the Elephant: A donation is a donation no matter how small.

Someone's Could Get Your Goat - And Be Thankful For It 

Shepard Up Support To Feed A Family

Gifts Worth Giving
You can provide a family with nourishment and a source of income too. Give a gift that really will keep on giving. Your donation will purchase a goat or lamb for a third world family. The animals provide milk and fertilizer for crops and sheep produce warm wool. Your donation of a goat can be doubled by a doantion from a wealthy community member in Kenya. Sheep often give birth to twins and triplets.

You will find other unique gifts to give on the link.

Help Us Help Them

We hope to raise funds to save children for pneumonia. This over looked disease kills one in every five children under the age of five. We can Save The Children. Our gola is $2,000 by the end of Novemeber. Please help.
Fundraising to preven pneumonia
Pneumonia kills one out of every five children under five years old in the world and yet it can be prevented. It is the number one killer of children worldwide, and think of this heartbreaking statistic; for every one child that dies of pneumonia in an industrial country 2,000 die in developing countries.

With early diagnosis and proper treatment with antibiotics that cost less than a dollar, their health can improve and lives can be saved. Less than a dollar! Instead of buying your lunch today brown bag it. You can save five or more children for the cost of your lunch.
