/

Miss Africa USA Organization is calling all its supporters, contestants current and past to join the relief efforts for Haiti and help in every way possible. Over 150,000 confirmed dead from the Earthquake that struck the Island of Haiti just under two weeks ago. The suffering is unimaginable, the hunger, the lack of basic needs to survive is huge. It will take many many years for Haiti to rebuild but some of those wounds may never be healed. What we can do for the Haitian people can never be under estimated. Every Dollar you donate, every item of Clothing you donate or that bottle of water, whatever you can do as a citizen of the world will make a difference. Miss Africa USA is donating to the American Red Cross through the link on the Miss Africa USA Website.

Riddick Bowe, Nyasha Zimucha and DC Students Team up with Shoe Charity to Help Dafur

/

 Wayne Elsey, Founder and CEO of Soles4Souls, recently joined students from the Briar Woods High School International Relations class (Ashburn, VA) in Washington D.C. for the event “Humanitarian Crisis in Darfur: Shoes on the Mall.” Led by their teacher, Logan Williams, the class of 24 students collected 30,000 pairs of shoes and placed them at the U.S. Capitol Reflecting Pool at the National Mall. Each pair of shoes represented 100 lives lost. Other notable volunteers attending the event included Riddick Bowe, Former Heavyweight Boxing Champion of the World, Nyasha Zimucha, Miss Africa USA 2009 and Paul Wilson, President of World Outreach for Soles4Souls. Hundreds of public volunteers helped line a ring of shoes around the reflecting pool as a powerful statement against the ongoing war in Darfur. Afterwards, Soles4Souls accepted the shoes to distribute them to homeless shelters, missions and international aid organizations across North America. The remainders that were unacceptable for distribution were recycled for playground surfaces. For more on this posting please visit the website http://www.soles4souls.org/media/photo_gallery.html
