Walk the world

the 1st of June, WFP organises the walk the world. This is a relay
walk, 5 km on each city, all around the globe in 24 time zones. The
objective is to fundraise money for the feeding program. In Malawi for
example, nearly 70% of children go to school without eating breakfast,
for lack of food at home. WFP provides food to the schools so that the
children can have a portion of maize porridge. This is an amazing
logistic challenge, since some of the schools are in really isolated
places.

It costs only 25 US cents to feed a child a day, 50 dollars per year!
You can participate in a walk near your home and funraise money, or
make a donation! You can find the walk closest to you here http://www.movingtheworld.org/walktheworld

I told you recently that we saw a concert of 3MA, the group composed by three african musicians playing string instruments from Madagascar, Morocco and Mali. Well, I have found a website about them, inside this site of CONTRE JOUR

In the web site you can find information also about Habib Coite, the great Malian musician, and from Dobet Gnahore, who is playing tomorrow at the french cultural center here!!! we are all going, bien sure!
