The drought and famine in Somalia have killed more than 29,000 children under the age of five. The UN says 640,000 Somali children are acutely malnourished, and the statistics suggest the death toll of small children will rise. The UN on Wednesday declared three new regions in Somalia famine zones, bringing the total number to five. Out of a population of roughly 7.5 million, the UN says 3.2 million Somalis are in need of immediate lifesaving assistance. (...read more)

We want to help those kids, so we're offering to host a special round of [community profile] kradamadness , designed to your specifications. You decide on the details, we do the hard work, fandom gets a new round of awesome, and the Somali kids receive some much needed donations! Everybody wins!

The great thing about this is that we're not just asking you to pick a theme. We want you to create a whole new challenge. The standard kradamadness challenge was basically a flashfic challenge - only weirder. You're welcome to ask for a new round of that, but you don't have to. You can go with a gift exchange instead. Maybe a secret santa challenge? It can be a remix challenge. A fuh-q fest. A kink meme round. A not-so-big bang. A reel challenge. You can even create something from scratch! You know we'll be all for the odd and the crazy!

There are some excellent challenges you can support (I'm rather taken by the fox!challenge myself) but hey, if there's a challenge you've always wanted to see, here's your chance to make it happen!



Or if you'd rather just donate, there's a list of charities here (thanks to [personal profile] jerakeen  for the link.) I went for Save The Children as I've donated to them in the past but they also accept PayPal, if that helps.
