How to Help the Children in Gaza?

15 January 2009, 09:54 , by Nadia Febina

 

The war has been going on since 27 Dec last year, but today again it hit me hard when I saw the pics of the victims, which many of them are children.

In such times, don’t you ever wish to be the ruler of the world, and with just a blink of an eye you can hush away the naughty boys and stop the killings?. I learn that everything happens for a reason, but sometimes reality is too hard to chew whilst the so called reason is not yet understood.

And I am no ruler of the world. Far away from the location, what can we actually do?. Honestly, I have not even a slight interest in putting a sophisticated writing to condemn nor even just to discuss and speculate humbly about the why’s, the history, the politics, the God’s chosen people, et cetera. Many more reputable bloggers have done that, I believe.

But there must’ve been many other ways… Giving our humble pray, contributing in signing petition, or donating is the bare minimum, I guess?.

This website, Save The Children is one of the many websites with good reference that allows you to do that.

If you know any other more ways to help, please share with reply to this post in the comment section or via the Contact link in nadiafebina.com to email me directly.

Many thanks friends… lotsa love from Angola! :)

Kinshasa, Aku Datang!
Sang pramugari berusaha menenangkan dan membawa barang mereka ke bagasi lain yang masih kosong. Namun sang istri ngotot ingin barang – barang itu tak jauh – jauh dari mereka. Lelaki kulit putih yang kulihat di ruang tunggu duduk di sampingku. Akhirnya setelah hampir satu jam mengatur para penumpang beserta barang bawaannya, pesawat pun lepas landas. Jangan berharap bisa tidur selama perjalanan. Aroma tak jelas sudah bukan masalah besar lagi. Perjalanan dari Bangkok menuju Nairobi membuat hidungku terbiasa dengan bau khas ini. Suara penumpang tak ada hentinya. Suami istri yang tadinya meributkan bagasi yang penuh kini tengah berdebat, entah memperdebatkan apa. Sang suami sibuk dengan kalkulator super gedenya sementara sang istri tak ada hentinya menjerit, meneriakkan instruksi kepada sang suami.
