Mas de 500,000 ninos africanos estan en riesgo mortal

Documento sin título

Apreciable amigo,
Desde UNICEF nos ponemos en contacto con usted porque ahora, más que nunca,
necesitamos de su ayuda urgente.
En días pasados, se declaró el estado de emergencia nutricional en el Cuerno de África. Hoy
esta situación se ha agravado: ha sido declarado oficialmente el estado de hambruna
en Somalia.
Más de la mitad de su población esta viviendo la situación de carencia alimenticia más grave
reconocida a nivel mundial. Las tasas de desnutrición ya superan el 80% en el sur de
Somalia, y millones de somalíes están intentando sobrevivir huyendo hacia los mayores
campos de refugiados existentes en el mundo que se ubican en Kenia y Etiopía. Entre los
refugiados encontramos a más de 1,850,000 niños que se encuentran en grave riesgo; más
del 50% de ellos se encuentra en estado de desnutrición crónica.
Juntos podemos evitar que más niños mueran, intensificando nuestros esfuerzos para
prestar servicios de salud y nutrición, acceso a agua potable y saneamiento,
poniéndolos al alcance de las familias más desesperadas de la región.
Si queremos salvar vidas, tenemos que actuar ahora, transportando con urgencia
grandes cantidades de medicamentos, vacunas y suministros alimentarios hacia la región,
para luego distribuirlos entre los niños que más lo necesitan. Para salvar vidas, la respuesta
humanitaria global debe ser inmediata.
Usted puede contribuir con este esfuerzo mundial para salvar vidas donando a UNICEF,
utilizando las herramientas que ponemos a su disposición. Es muy fácil y seguro.
• Donaciones On line haciendo clic en la liga: www.donaunicef.org.mx/africa
• Donaciones telefonicas llamando sin costo al: 01 800 841 88 88 (Lunes a viernes de 9 a 18 horas)

Igualmente le invitamos a compartir este mensaje y la presentación adjunta con sus familiares y contactos con el objetivo de apoyar a más niños. Muchas gracias por su colaboración.

Susana Sottoli,
Representante de UNICEF en México

San Ysidro Boarder

Loses Lanes!

By Robert J. Hawkins
www.signonsandiego.com

Crossing through the San Ysidro Port of Entry from Mexico is a slog during the best of times for more than 17 million vehicles a year, but the trip promises to become even more challenging, starting tonight as a number of lanes are taken out of action for 30 hours at a time into July. The world's busiest border crossing is going to get a bit narrower and more difficult for the 45,000 vehicles a day that slowly pass through it, starting tonight.
