International aid??

You know it is wonderful some of the games on faceBook have partnered with groups to feed hungry children...but why Haiti and Cameroon? Why not New York City...East Los Angeles... Detroit? The people in OUR country need help and the focus is on someone else. When do the people living in our streets matter? In every city across the country you can see a news clip or article in a news paper bitching about the homeless population rising and spilling into the city streets, and in the same breath try to figure out a way to get rid of them. I see a constant flow of commercials to help needy people and children in other countries, but I have never seen a commercial to raise money to help our own needy citizens. Do you think there are counties out there promoting programs to feed our homeless children?
