John Gachiri in AllAfrica.com via Business Daily (Nairobi): More Kenyans are in need of emergency food today than they were 20 years ago and the situation may get worse, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) says in a new report. The report, Global Hunger Index (GHI), that measures levels of malnutrition and hunger was released on Wednesday.It shows that Kenya's hunger rating has moved from "serious" to "alarming". Mr Suresh Babu from the Food, Security, Poverty and Nutrition Policy Analysis says that should the trend continue it could push the country to the "extremely alarming" bracket. "Kenya is a hunger hot spot and the index shows that it has been failing in food security for the last 20 years compared with other countries," the analyst said during the release of the report in Nairobi.
The GHI ranks countries on a 100-point scale, with zero being the best score -- indicating no hunger -- and 100 points being the worst. A score between 10 and 19.99 is ranked as serious, between 20 and 29.99 such as Kenya's means the situation is alarming, and beyond that means extremely alarming.
Although Kenya is ranked in the alarming tier with an index of 20.2 points, should the index exceed the 30 point mark the country could be plunged into the extremely alarming tier where it would share a podium with countries such as Zimbabwe and the Liberia….

Every life needs a purpose: something larger than ourselves that drives us to reach a goal, fill a need, or solve a problem. Without a purpose we’re just going through the motions—getting and spending, earning and struggling, with no goal other than waking up the next day and doing it all again. When we have a purpose, those same actions gain context and meaning. They make us happy. When we have a purpose, we stop “getting by” and start really living.
One of the strongest purposes you can find in life comes when you reach out to those around you. With Trivani, you have the opportunity to reach out to millions of people living in unhealthy and impoverished communities around the world. You will have a chance to give to numerous projects, such as schools, maternity wards, and medical clinics, in Uganda, Kenya, the Philippines, and elsewhere. You can even sponsor a child—not a faceless statistic but a real, specific child you’ll come to love—by providing the food, clothing, medicine, and education he or she needs to live a full and successful life.
Trivani can show you how to find your true purpose in life. It is easier than you might think, and it’s a cause you can feel good about.
Trivani Internation/Trivani Foundation is a 100% non profit company thats turning business into benevolence! Through the sales of products they sponsor children, products we all must buy monthly like skin care/hair care/oral care/ and health care products. Switch Stores from your neighborhood Walmart to Trivani and save lifes! Let the power of consumption drive our child sponsorship program! Please come take a look its the least we can all do! In these times donations have declined rapidly, spread the word about Trivani and consumption will drive the humanitarian efforts! They have the Highest pay out of any company in the industry.. 68% ... the next closest is in the 30% range.. !! And start up programs such as.. you get 50% of each referral's order the first month.. 100 dollar order from someone you find to join? you get 50! Plus profit sharing bonuses and car bonuses. Sounds to good to be true but most companys are always out for a profit.. with Trivani they are out to get children sponsored, and they will pay you more than anyone else in the biz because if you are making money and stay in, and any average Joe is making money and staying in.. Children will stay sponsored, fed, and healthy! Work for a purpose!
