Lake View Teacher May lose Family to Famine

Donation protected
This Lake View teacher assistant located on Chicago’s northside May lose her last remaining relatives to famine. She is the last surviving adult in her family as her parents and brothers and sisters were killed in a tragic car accident.  Her 15 nieces and nephews are under the age of 20 and have been surviving with the help of the Jesuit Missionaries and people providing good will.  Now that global warming has produced a drought for the last four years, all crops and the water has dried up and the children have been forced to beg for food and water. While desperately working on securing immigration Visas this August, two of her nephews perished from malnutrition.  Their situation is dire. She just recently received visas through the Canadian government. Now all my friend and long time colleague needs is to raise the money to get them out of Zambia into Canada.  Please Help donate this holiday season with a donation of $10 or more. If you can not help please share this out to people and networks who could possibly provide some funding.
