Chronic hunger doesn't look as alarming as rapid starvation, yet it's just as deadly. These children are starving to death — just slowly. Right now, one child dies from hunger every seven seconds. That's more than 14,000 children every day. And millions more are suffering.

Today, you can help provide 6x the life-saving essentials hungry children and families so desperately need: bam.

* Emergency food
* Seeds to grow maize, beans, and fruit
* Cows, chickens, goats, and other livestock
* Agricultural training
* Training about choosing and preparing nutritious foods

Right now, one child dies from hunger every seven seconds. rAH.

Right now, through our generous friends like you, World Vision is working hard to make this happen in 33 countries around the world, including Haiti, Ethiopia, and Rwanda. But we need your help to do even more. And any gift you give will multiply 6 times in life-saving power thanks to government grants.

I'm reminded of Psalm 146:7 — "He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry."

Thank you for your concern and prayers for children whose futures are threatened by hunger — and for responding today to help.
