Care for Life: From New York to Switzerland, Children Are Helping Save Lives After African Hurricane
All around the world, children are raising money for Care for Life's work in Mozambique
MESA, Ariz., April 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- By selling muffins, cake and play dough, two little girls from different sides of the world raised hundreds of dollars to help those who are suffering from the devastation of Hurricane Idai in Mozambique. Care for Life, a non-profit based in Arizona, has been working in Mozambique for almost 20 years. With casualties still being recorded and hundreds without power, water or food, every dollar donated helps Care for Life's emergency relief efforts tremendously.
Emergency donations are being accepted on www.careforlife.org.
Six-year-old Zara, who lives in Manhattan, New York, worked hard to raise money to help the victims of Hurricane Idai. This natural disaster is one of the worst weather events ever to occur in Mozambique. It is estimated that 90 percent of the city has been destroyed. Because of Zara, citizens in Mozambique will receive life-saving aid.
"My friends and I heard about the cyclone and wanted to help. We decided to run a bake sale on our street in Manhattan. We hope this money helps," said young Zara.
On the other side of the world, in Switzerland, Annina also raised money to help those in Mozambique. Annina sold slime, play dough and cake. By doing something small, these girls will make a huge difference to those in Mozambique. They took a few hours out of their day to help provide life-saving aid to others. To contribute like Zara and Annina, donations can be made at www.careforlife.org as well as https://www.facebook.com/careforlife.org/.
Care for Life has 30 staff members on the ground ready to distribute aid. Monetary donations are most needed and will be used directly for relief efforts designed to prevent any further loss of life.
