1 million children already malnourished, with inadequate food today. 1/2 million children in reach of aid, not getting it

AIBU to think this can be changed? So many terrible things we can't do anything about at all, but we can do something about this? Donate, a little or a lot, to the aid agencies that are on the ground and acting, Unicef, just as an example, but there are others, if you prefer.

Why have 3 people thought I was unreasonable? How can it be unreasonable to want to prevent children starving to death?

You asked if YABU to think it can be changed. People don't think it can be changed.

But your donation may change it for one child, surely that is worth it

I'm sad that more people don't want to respond to help these children

I agree with you OP. The situation in Sudan gets next to no news coverage. It's all about Gaza.
Where are the UN? Why is no one marching in protest against the situation in Sudan?

And the sad thing is we can actively help these children, they are in reach of aid.

@Icepearl
I have started some threads about Sudan too, but not many replies....
I just wanted to let you know that there are people out there worried about it, following the little info we get.
Also, our family charity money went to Unicef for Sudan last year. We will repeat this year.
Praying for the horror to end.
