Remember the Poor

Food for the Poor, one of my favorite charities, now has a blog.

The organization provides assistance to the poorest of the poor in the Caribbean and Latin America and receives the highest mark from Charity Navigator for financial responsibility..

Food for the Poor's website can be found here.

While many in the US are suffering from the effects of the economic downturn, the stakes are life and death in poverty-stricken countries such as Haiti. In fact many desperate people in Haiti are trying to satisfy their hunger pangs by eating mud. Literally.

Two moving videos from Food for the Poor:
