It's heartbreaking to read about kids actually crying from hunger. Glad the Church programs are staying put and still feeding them even as the big aid groups pull out.

Children crying from hunger is a terrible thing. I'm glad that the Church's programs stay and continue to feed them, even if the big organizations leave. I hope they find a way to get the food to more children.

It's awful to think of little ones crying from actual hunger like that. Good that the Church programs are sticking around and keeping the meals going when the big groups leave. I wonder how the Catholic Near East Welfare Association gets the food out to those remote spots in Ethiopia.
