Africa is currently face a crisis that has currently plagued about half its population. This , the continent is facing acute food shortage with wide spread hunger and disease. In Sierra Leone, the problem is compounding following the devastating effect of the war. Today, we think the African Hunger problem can be best managed by African themselves through support from the world rich countries. We Sierra Leone, we have decide to tackle the Hunger problem through the Human and Economic Development Organization (HEDO). We want to employ a radical approach to ending hunger by involving in massive food production. We needed the support of international organizations like the Bill Gate Foundation . As the Research and Economic Director of this organization, I would be very grateful if the Bill Gate Foundation could consider a proposal for funding from our organization (Human and Economic Development). Our current address is : Human and Economic Development Organization, C/O # 10 Charllotte Street, Freetown, Sierra Leone.
