The BBC today reports that the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has determined 100 million MORE people throughout the world are starving, citing the global economic crisis as the reason for the surge.

The UN said almost all of the world’s undernourished live in developing countries, with the most, some 642 million people, living in the Asia-Pacific region.

In sub-Saharan Africa, the next worst-hit region, the figure stands at 265 million.

This news comes on the heels of news from Jeff Trexel, DHI founder currently visiting with the poorest of the poor in Kenya, that the children we just saw only 6 months ago are not getting enough to eat.  Praise the Lord for this knowledge,  and the opportunity to meet this need immediately!

While the DHI founding mission team served in Kenya earlier this year, part of their work was hosting feasts where the team pooled together a couple hundred US dollars and fed hundreds of men women and children in Eburru Africa.  Now that Jeff is back in Eburru and seeing the dire need, the team is organizing to fund more feasts while Jeff is in Kenya.  This is exciting news, that Jeff is in the field reporting needs real time back to the states and we can do something about it, now!!

DHI would love for you to join us in this work.  Help us work to see a new headline — millions of starving children are fed!!!
