There is a severe drought across Southern Africa, and millions are facing starvation. Severe drought has destroyed the crops that feed millions and provide the salaries in these countries,and this has led to widespread hunger. Unfortunately, the tragic story has not received much media coverage in the United States. People steel sugarcane just to keep hunger at bay and parents face jail time just so their children can put some food in their empty stomachs. Although, the tragedy has not received much media attention, we can read more about it at the ADRA web site.

My country has been hit by the el nino for about 4 months since the January. We've faced the water rationing plus the 39 degree Celsius temperature. Things were so bad that time. But now, we're warned to face the el nina that could caused flood.
