It seems to me that the cause of the majority of starvation in the world is NOT a lack of food, but political. Mugabe's rule had pretty much ended food production in Zimbabwe, and where we've seen a lot of starvation, like in the Ethiopian civil war, food is used as a weapon.
Still, I hope this works... Saving lives is a very worthwhile endeavor. I just hope that these African countries will accept the assistance and put it to good use.

Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia) was once known as “the breadbasket of Africa.”
