Hunger Banquet in Action

Hey Siders

it's Matthew Colling. I am in ghana currently with EPI empowerplaygrounds.org but on my way to Congo Dec. 28th...if the fighting clears or at least if Bukavu holds...we're heading striaght into a war zone and yet another bllod letting and it's been a blood bath as you know since 2004. Bukavu, where our little "Sowers of Hope" School is located still holds with the 17,000 strong UN force. But in Africa...UN means very little to war lords. Wish us luck, we'll need your prayers that our supplies we purchased with the 4000 dollars from the hunger banquet make it in...I will do everything in my power to make this is a success. just know and reassure all the Sidders that all the good they did last year in raising that money is going to not some impropable and hopeless cause but directly to one if not the largest and most urgent humanitarian cause in the world at the moment. It's bad...I'm sure you've heard!

Luv you all

Matthew
