I refuse to pay for something that people I didn't know did 200 years ago. The people now alive should receive nothing... what harm was done them? The issue you mentioned in Namibia is totally different in that some of the victims of WWII are still alive or their immediate descendants. You list slavery as the reasons African nations are so poor.... check on the numbers of slaves that were actually taken from Africa.... it's much less than you think. The reason African nations are so poor is the lack of emphasis given to education then and now.

I don't see the sense in preaching at all.  Instead of buying a plane ticket send them the money.  Do you have any idea how far $1000 US would go in most countries in Africa?  Africa doesn't need any more outsiders going in there and creating more division between the people.  The French did it, the Belgians, Germans, British, etc. People need to realize when to stop *trying to* help.\n\n\n*Forcing*

You should give it to Heifer Project International\n\nIt helps impoverished families worldwide become more self-reliant through the gift of livestock and training in their care.\n\nThis charity really helps people to help themself, once the gift of livestock is given. I've given to this charity for over 10 years now.\n\nhttp://www.heifer.org

I suggest you check with American Red Cross for financial needs.  You can also pray.  Trust in others to help you get the funding by requesting donations in a cup or glass jar with a sign posted, that says: Save the Children of Kenya.  We are suffering for land needed to keep schools open for business.  Do this in two languages.  Your native language and also another language that most people are familar with in Kenya, be it English or not.  Submit pictures of the children with the school and the land plot beside them.  No smiles, but ask the children to go around with the cups requesting help.  A penny here, a penny there, and people's hearts will open when they see such children starving for love and affection and financial help with building and keeping the lot.  No matter what your government says or does, fight back with your words.  But do not take up arms against your neighbor, brother, or sister, when it is the children who need the plot.  After all else fails, and all ignorance and all fears are observed, demand resititution from the military who exerts control over your people, for your people are also mine, and yet we are like strangers from distant countries.  All of us brothers and sisters under God.  Preach the message and encourage the children to help out, but expect the people to drop some money in a cup.  This is what the Lord says through me.  You do not suffer.  You end the suffering by stepping up and acting as a leader!  You love the children, then do everything in your power to ensure they are safe and happy where they are, because one day, money shall rain from the skies like manna from Heaven, and then will you and your country be fulfilled?  Not unless you start acting today.

Skiboy has a very good answer. I would just add to clarify that you may directly contact the embassies of impoverished countries and express your desire to teach English in their country. Some won't be interested at all. Some will be very happy to hear from you, but won't pay you even for your flight over. If you want to get some sort of pay, the Peace Corps is your best option. Unless, as Skiboy says, you want to "spread the word." \n\nThere are a ton of organizations out there who hire English teachers, but they are for profit and therefore don't go to impoverished countries. I know of no charities who provide English teachers to impoverished countries.

Probably.  check with your local employement office to see if they offer vocational retraining grants.  Also call the hospitals and see if they know of anything.  With the critical shortage, I'm sure their is money, you just have to find it.\n\nThere are tons of scholarships that go unclaimed each year. Many $400, $500 or $1000 scholarships never even get applied for because people think it's chump change and not worth applying for. Well, get a few of those $500 scholarships and it'll really make a dent in your tuition bill.\n\nDo a search on scholarships, search your major, your ethnic heritage, your town, your employer, hobbies, high school, local chamber of commerce/rotary/lion's club etc. \n\nGo to the library and ask the reference librarian for a reference book on scholarships. They usually have more than one. There are all kinds of scholarships out there, you just have to start applying yourself and make it your summer career to send out letters everyday for scholarships. Good luck!

Write to the Provident Fund officer in U R area and inform him about the employment and ask him to take action and transfer the Money to U R account

Try calling the local food bank, city hall, fire department, radio station, woman's club and your child's school principal and secretary. Someone will know somebody at this late date. Its too late to apply for the Toys for Tots and Salvation Army programs.

Small Business Association.. and try federal grants - since you are minorities.. your odds of getting a grant or loan is higher.. especially since you have a solid business plan

No doubt you will get lots of replies to this one!  However serious answers only I guess I required.  How about sending emails to  millions of users requesting donations for a needy cause, You!! See how many are happy to send a donation!  Just think if everyone with a little extra was prepared to help those a little less well off individual circumstances for some could be greatly improved.  Redistribution of wealth, dig deep you fat cats (most of you dont deserve your exhorbitant wage packets anyway so c'mon - give a little back).
