Summary

[edit]
Description

Schoolchildren from Gillespie Primary School, Islington, London, help football legends Patrick Vieira and Niall Quinn, Chancellor George Osborne MP, and Minister of State for International Development Alan Duncan MP, to launch 'Tackle Famine', a partnership between the Premier League and the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC), to raise money for the DEC East Africa Crisis Appeal, at No. 11 Downing Street.

From 26-28 November 2011, Premier League football grounds up and down the country will donate free advertising space to raise funds for the DEC appeal. Football fans will be encouraged to Tackle Famine by texting FOOD to 70000, to donate £5 to the appeal.

The UK Government has helped set up the partnership. British aid from the government is already helping to feed more than 2.4million people in the drought-stricken Horn of Africa region. The DEC is a charity that brings together 14 leading UK aid agencies, to raise funds when there is a major emergency in a poorer country overseas. The DEC appeal has already raised more than £72million in donations from the British public, but more funds are still needed.
