Recently I was contacted by Steven Selzer from international nonprofit organization Africa Aid in regards to the current program they are running, simply stated “buy a t-shirt and feed an African Refugee child for one school year”. With this one of a kind t-shirt, on sale between now and June 30th, Africa Aid hopes to fund their successful School Lunch Program for the remainder of this school year and the entire second year. The School Lunch Program School Lunch Program provides nutritious lunches for more than 200 children in the Budaburam Refugee Settlement in Ghana. I encourage you to check out the Africa Aid website to learn more about this program and what you can do to help by purchasing a t-shirt, donate time or money, signing the pledge and spreading the word. You can also check them out on MySpace, add them to your friends list and encourage others to do the same. I would like to extend a thanks to Africa Aid for opening our eyes to this program and realizing that we can accomplish our goals by involving like minded individuals, companies and organizations by spreading the word.
