Emergency Relief for Ethiopia

Pam & I are working with A Glimmer of Hope to provide emergency relief for the people of Ethiopia.  We are kicking off the campaign with $10,000, and for every dollar you give we will match with another dollar, up to a maximum of $45,000.  Millions are in danger of dying of starvation.  In the last three months, over 29,000 children under the age of 5 have died.  We understand we can't save them all, but we sure can help, and that is the story of the starfish (for the starfish story go to www.starrbrite.com/starfish.html).  Will you join us in making a difference in peoples lives who don't have some of the basic necessities of life that we all tend to take for granted.  Most of you know that Pam & I have partnered with Glimmer in the past to help build infrastructre and water wells in several Ethiopian villages.  Now it's time to partner with them for emergency relief.  Please consider joining us in helping the less fortunate.
