Do they know it's Christmas?

This is a repost of something I wrote one year ago today. It's still pertinent—sadly—so here it is again.

A serious post here for just a moment, everyone.

Tomorrow is Christmas, and I'm in a lovely posh hotel and you're in your home or the home of a friend or family, and we're likely going to have a delicious Christmas dinner tomorrow.

No preaching: just remember there are people who don't have that, not just at Christmas but all year 'round.

If you're in the US, consider donating to The Salvation Army. If you're in the UK, to Crisis or StreetSmart.

As a great man once said: "It's Christmas 1984 and there are more starving folk on our planet than ever before." It's 2006 and that hasn't changed. Do what you can to help change it for future Christmases and for future all-year-rounds.
