The good news is that since 1986, there are over 10,000 fewer of these empty cradles each day because of successful interventions like Oral Rehydration Therapy, imunizations, Vitamin A treatments, growth monitoring, and breastfeeding of infants -- plus anti-poverty strategies like education for girls and microcredit.

The combined efforts of Naomi Natale and the participating artists represent their clear understanding and application of their roles as global citizens. Their efforts are admirable and can serve as models for others, as we too look for ways to help others and serve humanity---even across the artificially drawn boundaries of nationhood. --S.Clair
