Got an email from Lenny Henry earlier: this is the gist of it:

Every 3 seconds a child dies because he or she happened to be born poor …. still!!!

It goes on, and on, and on.

You can help stop this … but time is running out.

In less than 8 weeks the G8 leaders meet in Edinburgh. These guys have it in their power to change things that will stop those deaths… forever! Just think how amazing that will be, a 21st century world where kids do not die un-necessarily from the affects of poverty.

Those leaders will act if they think enough people want them to.

Please……massive PLEASE …. if you have not joined the make poverty history campaign please go to the website now and click the ‘join’ button. It costs nothing and could save lives.
