This will sound hard, but it's true.
Every 1 person saved this year = 2-3 people in 20 years time. Unless war, disease and starvation kills them.
The land was never able to support the number or people it now does, sending food, teaching them to feed themselves, giving them a fishing rod instead of a fish. Are stupid white middle class solutions. To a problem they can't even comprehend.
Telling a tribesman it's wrong to kill an elephant for his tusks. When the tribesman family are staving to death. Is never going to get results.
And as J. Falcon says most of the money poured in goes to tribal leaders.
