Today President Obama will announce new investments in African agriculture. It's a pretty simple concept of investing in long-term hunger solutions for Africa instead of just sending food aid.
As demonstrated in my many posts about cookie dough, Cadbury eggs and Girl Scout Cookies - I'm very anti-hunger.
This week I donated $30 to Heifer International for bees. Bees aren't as glamorous as an actual heifer (they cost $500), but apparently bees are extremely helpful for increasing agriculture production. I hope the bees sent to Uganda will be nice, productive and sweet bees and not the kind that sting for no reason. That would be a big Filanthropy Friday failure.
