Youth Stand, and Learn, With Africa On-Line

Baltimore, November 7, 2003 — Middle school youth and teachers are now using new on-line educational resources from the Stand With Africa campaign. A Bible-based activity teaches students about hunger and what they can do about it, and an interactive language module teaches everyday expressions that kids use in Kenya, Congo, Nigeria and Ethiopia. There is also a game called "Detest The Pest," a puzzle, video previews, maps, project summaries and background articles-all available at www.StandWithAfrica.org.

Stand With Africa is a special initiative by LWR, the ELCA World Hunger Program and LCMS World Relief to support African churches and communities as they overcome AIDS, hunger and conflict.
