We are doing Dry-July to raise money for the starving children in Yemen! They need your help!

Auckland

Hey everyone, a bunch of us are doing Dry-July to help raise money for the Yemen Crisis 2020.

We are all really lucky to be in a part of the world where we are removed from violence and wars that plague other countries. While we are grateful that our families and loved ones in NZ are safe from harm, many others are not so fortunate and each day is struggle.

The armed conflict in Yemen has resulted in the largest humanitarian crisis in the world. More than 20 million people in Yemen are experiencing food insecurity; 10 million of them are at risk of famine. People are starving! Over half of them are children - we need to help with something.

The Dry-July Crew includes:

Jamie West

Sally-Anny Forde

Muralidhar Siddavatam

Jamie Smith

Anthony Benson

Nic Hooper

Raymond Lodge-Osborn

Dry-July means, no alcoholic drinks for the entire month of July! Penalties incur for anyone in the crew who breaks the rules. $50 per infringement to be donated to this fundraiser - immediately.
