Mariah becomes Global Hunger ambassador
Mariah is taking a leading role and lending her voice in the fight to stop hunger as the Ambassador for the World Hunger Relief 2008 Fall Campaign to benefit the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP). To help in the fundraising efforts, Mariah is providing a free download of her song "Love Story", from her latest CD, E=MC2, to anyone who makes a donation in one of Yum! Brands 35,000 participating restaurants around the world. The Yum! Foundation will also make a $ .25 cent donation to WFP for the first 2 million redeemed downloads of "Love Story" so be sure to donate and get your free download today to help end world hunger.
More than 850 million people around the world are faced with hunger and malnutrition. This is worsening due to a global food crisis. Every six seconds a child dies from hunger somewhere in the world. Hunger kills more people than AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined. We can put an end to world hunger with your help. Please join Mariah, Yum! Brands and the United Nations World Food Programme in the efforts to raise awareness, volunteerism and desperately needed funds to help end world hunger.
The mission is to feed people in need. For approximately ... a day, WFP can provide a meal to four children through its global school feeding program. Please give and help move millions of children from hunger to hope. To donate and join the movement to end world hunger, visit www.FromHungerToHope.com. (MariahCarey.com)
