Elon Musk recently referred to USAID, the agency responsible for development aid in the United States, as a criminal organization and abruptly stopped nearly 10,000 aid programs. Among them were the provision of life-saving AIDS medication and food for severely malnourished infants. As a result, more than 20,000 people have already died, and the number continues to rise daily.

And in England, France, and Germany, the funds for development aid are currently also being massively cut.

If you don’t want to accept that once again the poorest people in the world are suffering the most from current developments, then join this fundraising campaign with a generous donation.

Let’s not bury our heads in the sand, but instead, let’s set a sign of solidarity, especially in these times. Let’s encourage each other: We don’t just have to watch, it is in our own hands to make a change. As the author Erich Kästner beautifully put: “There is nothing good in the world. Unless you do it.”

You can find background information on what is currently happening here and a reminder of what extreme poverty means here.
