If you want to do something about it, this is an organization that has global programs to feed and help save starving children around the world:

You can also check out http://www.care.org/

How about this for a startup idea -- software tools to help empower non-profits to help those around the world. Tools to help them communicate together, coordinate logistics, respond where aid is needed best.

I am very glad you made that last point. That's a major shift my company is about to take, we're focusing on non-profit organizations and government institutions that need to refocus and establish goals around evolving technology requirements and enhancements.

In the next few months we're going to be on a campaign to find as many pro-bono developers, designers, consultants and experts to fill the void between non-profit and relevancy.
