There are lots of ways we can help these countries. One dollar can buy a family food. When I think of it I feel real sad because what if it was me out there with no food or no place to live.

I think someday that there will be less homeless and less hungry if we keep doing what we are to help out. If we do not help the other countries with there hunger problems I think that there would be more deaths then there are today of hunger which would be real sad. I hope that someday there will be no hunger problem. But that cant happen when the cost of living is so high everywhere. The problem in Nepal is caused because of mother nature. We cant prevent it so we cant help in that part but there’s lots of other ways that we can help.
