Thanks to all those of you who have raised awareness of our Zimbabwe appeal.
Zimbabwe is no longer in the news, and the cholera situation is improving, thanks to the end of the rainy season and the work of the Red Cross and others. But this is relative: there are still more than 87,900 cholera cases.

Within six hours of contracting cholera, if left untreated, you're chronically dehydrated and within a day you can die. It is vital that we continue to reach as many communities as possible with the messages on how to prevent cholera to keep the current situation under control.

So we still need your help: please share our Zimbabwe video on your profile:
