Everyday 16 thousand children die because of hunger related issues. Millions die every year.
Why? It's because of us. They have been colonized for many years and left out after the industrial revolutions. They do not have any viable natural resource (some parts have diamond, platinum etc, but they prosper anyways) therefore nobody seems to care about them but missionaries.
All the whole world does is watching Brangelina adopt bunch of children from them, and clap their hands with joy when they hear about a charity doing something nice.
The garbage generated in USA everyday can feed whole Africa. So next time you order a Super-Size meal, think about it.
I don't really believe in charities either. I have worked with kids over there, the things you see would make most people suicide, after you see how cheap life is. The donations given to them is just like giving them fish everyday to eat without telling them how they found them but that's not a solution.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime. - Confucius
Approximately 12 million people in South Africa are at risk of hunger and malnutrition, with about 10 million children experiencing food insecurity. However, specific daily statistics on deaths due to hunger in South Africa are not readily available.

Definitely. It is largely a hidden problem, but 2 million Australians depend on food aid. 1 million of these are children. You can find out more at this website: http://www.foodbank.com.au/
The people are living under an oppressive government. Many people are suffering because of the government's unfair policies and brutal taxation of the districts.
People die in Africa for many of the same reasons why people die anywhere. There are also some causes that are not as common elsewhere. For example many die from hunger, and lack of drinking water.
Of the world’s more than seven billion people, more than 840 million are counted as suffering from chronic hunger. It is estimated that a person dies of hunger or hunger-related causes every ten seconds, most of them children. That’s 3,153,600 people who die of hunger every year.
Africa is a large continent with many countries, and the countries face different problems. Poverty, crime and war are some problems Africans face.

There are five different types of hunger. They are mind hunger, taste hunger, habit hunger, stomach hunger, and body hunger. These can all be controlled with practice to keep people from consuming more than they need.
