Providing For The Hungry

Hey Everyone! Nate from World In Need Ministries here. I need to ask a favor of all of you. As you may know, World In Need sells t-shirts to raise funds to fight poverty world-wide. Recently, there has been a huge need for providing food to people around the world. Many of the organizations these funds go to have been in dire need of financial support to continue providing children in Africa with enough food to survive. Because of this dire need of children world-wide, World In Need has stepped up our fundraising efforts to continue to provide for these children. What I need from all of you is this, we need to spread the word of this fundraiser and the needs it provides for. Please help us provide food for the millions of children around the world who go hungry everyday. Hunger is one of the largest killers of children in poverty and because of poverty, 30,000 children lose their life everyday. Together we can end this and lower that number for eternity. Please share this bulletin with everyone you know and help us spread the word about poverty.

If you would like to order a T-shirt, please contact me in whatever way works best for you (see below). Your donations and support are very important to World In Need and our works world-wide.

T-shirts cost $15 and come in sizes small to X-large in either yellow, orange, or blue. If you need a size that is not listed please leave me know and i will gladly order your size in.
