2 Seconds Or Less

2SOL: Who We Are

 Every two seconds, someone in the world dies from malnutrition.  This unfortunate statistic led to the inspiration of 2 Seconds Or Less, an organization that envisions a hope that one day hunger can be beaten in Africa.  The focus of 2SOL is not necessarily concerned with distributing food, but rather with giving the impoverished a cheap, yet extremely effective solution to providing a sustainable food source for themselves.

 

We don't merely want to feed the hungry for a day.  We want to feed them for life.

 

Sustainability: The Seed We Sow

2 Seconds Or Less will accomplish this mission through building strong relationships and educating impoverished African communities about sustainable agriculture.  Also, through continuing clinical testing and research on Moringa Oleifera, nicknamed “the Miracle Tree”, 2SOL can distribute, empower, and teach methods for growing this highly nutritional, drought resistant, and inexpensive solution -a crop that many believe to be the key to ending the African malnutrition epidemic.

 

In addition to nourishing the bodies of the impoverished in Africa, 2 Seconds Or Less also nourishes the minds and hearts of students in both Africa and America.  This program is called Project Ubuntu, and it goes beyond just a pen pal exchange.  In fact, it is an entire curriculum designed to teach American students about Africa and build a connection between kids from both continents.  Through raising support, making friends, and education, Project Ubuntu’s goal is to raise awareness about malnutrition in the third world and partner American and African schools together in a mutually beneficial friendship.

 

...and so, we begin with our target nation, Zimbabwe, the third-poorest nation on the planet.  But only with your help, can 2 Seconds Or Less serve the poor and starving in Zimbabwe.  Let's plant this miracle, and cultivate hope.

 

Let's fight hunger together.  Let's feed them for life.
