    It sounds cold, but I would rather help someone here and fix things here, before helping someone there.

    Cold but, oh well.

    But i'm in the camp that country is an accident of birth. i also am politically nuetral nad don;t put much stock in mankind's ability to govern itself.
    When I see those people suffering in NIger.. I see my neighbors.. they could live down the street for all I know.. i don't want them to have such hopelessness and I want to do anything I can to help.

    Millions (probably billions) of dollars in international aid and humanitarian relief flood into Africa every year. It's not that people aren't helping, the biggest problem throughout Africa is corrupt governments that squander and/or divert the international aid they receive.

    That said, if you want to help, the International Red Cross and Catholic Charities are supposed to have the best records at getting donations to the intended recipients.
