“Famine is at the door. The world is receiving a final warning." Surely we can do more? Australia please step up to #HelpFightFamine ASAP with a $150M investment in the response: @PatConroy1 @SenatorWong smh.com.au/world/africa/t…

@WorldVisionAus welcomes the $15 mil provided by the @AustGovernment. But given what I am seeing on the ground in the Horn of Africa a serious commitment of $150 mil is needed to stop #humanitarians from taking from the hunger to feed the starving. #fightfamine @SenatorWong
