As you may know, all the performers have given their time to help us.This concert is to raise money for children in Africa. Every day hundreds of children in Africa die because they dont have enough to eat. There are two reasons. First, there is no work for the childrens parents. Second, the governments in many African countries do not have the money to help the poor.Most African countries are poor. The land is not good for growing food and the weather is also bad for farming. The Feed Africa Fund spends millions of dollars every year on food for poor people in Africa. This money comes from people like youkind, generous people who do not want to see children die from hunger.Every dollar you give this evening will go to the Feed Africa Fund. Just one dollar can buy enough food to feed a family of four for three days. Think about it: only one dollar can feed four people for three days.How much do you spend on food every day? Ten dollars? Twenty dollars? I am sure you can spend a little less on your own food so that you have a few dollars for the Feed Africa Fund.Please be kind and generous! Give your family with a helping hand. Your money can make a difference in others life and yours. Thank you!61.
