That post was depressing, so I have to follow it up with some constructive suggestions for how we can help. There's plenty of lit talking about the benefits of going yourself vs. sending money for food. I'm going to assume that if you are thinking about going yourself, you are proactive enough to find some websites on your own. If you're thinking about giving, here's a couple of options -
Feed The Children
Samaritan's Purse
Child sponsorship -
World Vision
Compassion International
The accountant in me wants to remind you that if you're not familiar with these orgs, check out their financials or look them up on Watchdog agencies to make sure you know how the money will be used.
I was about to suggest the Watchdog agency part....glad you covered that. Compassion and Samaritan's Purse I know are very good orgs for money usage.
