Oxfam's East Africa appeal

20th July 2011

Oxfam are appealing for aid after a severe drought has left more than 10 million people across Somalia, Ethiopia and Kenya desperate for food.

"This is the worst food crisis of the 21st Century and we are seriously concerned that large numbers of lives could soon be lost. People have already lost virtually everything and the crisis is only going to get worse over the coming months – we need funds to help us reach people with life-saving food and water," said Jane Cocking, Oxfam’s Humanitarian Director.
