Charities For Africa Need A World Of Hands For Hope
Reaching out to other countries in terms of charity is rewarding and much needed. Africa is in need of funding to build schools, purchase books and to aid in health-care. Many countries and corporations fund projects in Africa as well as celebrities. There are several different charities that have been supported by Bono, the singer and song writer for the band U2 and Oprah Winfrey who is a talk show host.
Bono has been involved in a campaign called "make poverty history" where he built his platform to ask leader developed countries to increase aid and trade. He also asked the developed countries cancel Third World debt. He has been a fearless spokesperson for Charities For Africa and has received three nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize. He was also knighted in 2007.
Oprah Winfrey had a vision for a better tomorrow for African girls. In 2007 that vision became a reality. The Leadership Academy Foundation opened its doors to South African girls who had impoverished backgrounds. Oprah feels that she is making a way for future leaders and she believes that education is the key. Her Charities For Africa generates funds by her and other people and organization that believe in her cause. She has been a role model to many.
