The Archbishop of Sydney, The Most Rev Peter Jensen, through Anglican Aid, is seeking the goodwill of all Sydney Anglicans to show an extraordinary outpouring of compassion and generosity to raise $500,000 for drought and famine relief for the people of Somalia, Ethiopia and Kenya.  5000 gifts averaging $100 will reach this target.

Join together with Anglicans all over Sydney and beyond and make August 2011 a month when we can make a real difference to those suffering from this devastating humanitarian crisis.
