Real-life impacts of #Trump #USAID cuts: Babies are dying. Essential support for safe deliveries and postnatal care has diminished, contributing to preventable deaths, particularly in rural areas, #Ngora and #Soroti districts. Want to #help? We can connect you w/orgs on ground.

Wondering about the real-life impacts of #USAID cuts? In #Uganda, local #NGOs are reporting 30% increase in missed Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) doses among patients. SmartResponse.org can connect you with NGOs on the ground facing cuts. #philanthropy #howtohelp

Jonas Habimana of @OBiferd wrote me that in East #DRC #RDC, where his #NGO operates, 1000+ children were displaced due to armed conflict and are now learning under trees. There's a need for their protection, classrooms, food, educational kits. More here: smartresponse.org/organization/9…

This is a scary development, @Twitter . People are going to die because a particular person at the top (@elonmusk) doesn't understand the value of automated #tsunami and #weather warnings.
NWS Tsunami Alerts@NWS_NTWC

⛔@Twitter is now limiting automated tweets and as a result, this account can no longer post all #Tsunami Warnings, Advisories, Watches, and Information Statements as they are issued. We will make every effort to continue manual posts 🧵(1/5)

Opinion: The same questions are often asked on the anniversaries of disasters: How have communities benefited from the outpouring of generous giving? Have those benefits been distributed equitably? The answers are usually disappointing. phlnthrp.com/3fOv0DO
