Change the World: Provide $500 worth of medicine for $10

Posted by Leafy Green on December 5, 2007 2:07 PM Filed Under: Gifts, Shopping

No, it's not one of those Viagra offers you get in your Inbox everyday.

For just $10 you can support International Relief Teams in providing antibiotics, vaccines and other medicines to children living in impoverished countries.  Your $10 gift actually delivers medicine that would cost $500 in the United States.

When you see a story on the news about a mudslide, flood or hurricane in "some foreign country" these are the people who are there on the ground helping those in need of medical attention.

Think about it.  You can possibly save a child's life.  For just ten dollars.  C'mon, you left the waitress a bigger tip after you had that steak dinner last night.   Surely you can drop $10 to save someone's life, can'tcha?
