My story
Drought has been causing severe food shortages and today, the UN has declared famine in the areas of Bakol and Lower Shabelle in Somalia. In some parts of the country, around 55% of the children are suffering from acute malnutrition. About 3.7 million people are in crisis in Somalia and in total 10 million people are at risk in East Africa. This video explains how bad it's become:

As tiny as it is, I would like to do something to help. Starting Monday, 25th July and ending 25th August, I am going to be completely decaffeinated. The money raised will be going to the Disasters Emergency Commitee, who will spend it on helping all those affected by the famine.

Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.
