Ask 5 for 5 (and help starving people in the Horn of Africa)

So here is the deal. When something as tragic as the drought in the Horn of Africa hits, it's hard to know what to do. Sarah, whom I mentioned in a previous post, is the brain and inspiration behind a movement that could change and SAVE thousands of lives. Her concept is simple: donate $5 (just $5!) and ask 5 friends to do the same -they donate and ask 5 friends to donate and pass the word, etc. After 9 iterations, the funds raised total about 2 million dollars. Yup, MILLION!

Please, consider donating and telling your friends about this movement. Post it on Facebook or Twitter, write emails, talk about it at work. We have the power to "do something about it."

Thanks for posting this year, dear friend! It's crazy--but it's happening. Just $5 at a time...
