Thank you everyone for signing my petition. I want to share this message from Hamza, a child in Yemen, who is calling for your support today:

“Hello, my name is Hamza Hakim Almasmari. I am a child from Yemen. Today is my 9th birthday, and for my birthday gift I want to do this campaign action to help Yemen.

Can you believe that every 10 minutes a child like me dies in Yemen from hunger? These children do not live their life in happiness because of hunger and because of the airstrikes that they have to face and live through every day. Yesterday I was walking in the streets, and I saw children eating from the garbage because they were hungry. 

For this reason I had the idea that for my birthday gift, I want to ask friends around the world to skip one meal a day for three days for the sake of ending hunger and ending the war in Yemen.

I’m asking you to share the news of what we are doing by tweeting now with the hashtag #fastactionforYemen.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart”
