Great causes

Posted on December 2nd, 2010 in Quenton Cohen: Professional Chef,Serious Stuff by MAC

I don’t want to give away any twists from Quenton Cohen, but I really wanted to mention two charities that are relevant to the book (you’ll have to read it to find out why).

Please take a little time to visit their websites with your parents, grandparents, teachers, or librarians to see how you can help.

 

War Child

War Child works with local partners across the world to help children affected by war.

They provide sustainable, long-lasting programs that focus on education, HIV/AIDS, psychosocial rehabilitation, child rights, health, and vocational training, enabling children to support their communities and nurture a culture of peace and development.

 

Doctors Without Borders

www.doctorswithoutborders.org

Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international medical humanitarian organization created by doctors and journalists in France in 1971 that provides independent, impartial assistance to those most in need.

Today, MSF provides aid in nearly 60 countries to people whose survival is threatened by violence, neglect, or catastrophe, primarily due to armed conflict, epidemics, malnutrition, exclusion from healthcare, or natural disasters.
