<p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Hi Everyone,</p> <p>I'm embarking on a <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">300km hike over 7 days</span></strong> to raise money for the <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">East Africa Food Crisis</span></strong>.</p> <p>Some time ago... a pregnant Mother Khadija walked for 30 days with her 2 year old daughter in search of food, water and a place to rest. At the end of her horrific journey, she survived and her daughter died. <strong>Why must this be allowed to go on in a world of surplus food?</strong></p> <p>3.7 million people (just under 50% of the population of London in mid-2010) like her are facing starvation daily, hour by hour, minute by minute.&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/gallery/2011/jul/14/somalia-drought-in-pictures#/?picture=376876308&amp;amp;index=0">http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/gallery/2011/jul/14/somalia-drought-in-pictures#/?picture=376876308&amp;index=0</a></p> <p>They say "Evil reigns when good people do nothing". We are therefore called upon to <strong>act.</strong></p> <p><strong>I will be walking a marathon a day in support of the Action against Hunger's work in the East Africa Food Crisis.</strong></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">So please dig deep in support of this even if it's just a fiver.</span></p> <p><strong><span style="color: #2a2a2a; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; background-color: #ffffff;"> </span></strong></p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
