tökum, sem nefnast „Bjargið börnun-
um“, birtist í bandaríska vikuritinu Times
í sumar. Með aðstoð leikarahjónanna
Paul Newman og Joanne Woodward er
reynt að fá lesendur til að gefa sveltandi
börnum ákveðna fjárupphæð mánaðar-
lega.
Á svarmiðanum eru reitir, þar sem á að
krossa við af hvoru kyninu barnið skuli
vera og frá hvaða hungurhrjáða landi.
Auk þeirra landa, sem oftast eru nefnd í
þessu sambandi (Afríku, Bangladesh,
Kólumbíu, Sri Lanka, ...) er að finna
þarna ýmsa sultarstaði, sem sennilega
koma mörgum á óvart, þar á meðal ísra-
el.

oiBjargiö börnunum“
An important message from PAUL NEWMAN and JOANNE WOODWARD
“We share our love with
seven wonderf ul children
we have never seen.
“ We’d like to tell you why.”
“For 16 years we’ve been Save
the Children sponsors. We began
by sponsoring a desperately poor
little girl from the mountains of
Colombia—a child who lived in a
one-room hut and could only
dream of attending school.
"It was a joy to share our good
fortune with her and to know that
she was blossoming because
someone cared enough to help.
It made us want to help other
children in the same way. And .
graphs...reports...and iefters you
can exchange, if you wlsh.
“You'll see despair turn to
hope, and you'll feel the personal
reward of knowlng what your love
and support can do.
“The cost is so little. The need
is so great. Won’t you join us as
Save the Children sponsors?"
