Volunteering in Zambia is a way to totally immerse yourself in African culture. This is a great opportunity to make life-long friends, learn a new culture from the inside out and discover that one person really can make a difference.
Volunteer with us and see A Broader View of the World.

Are you a business or a charity and a business? And should you be advertising here though your seeming advertising a good cause. But I can not recommend the article as I am not sure if your a business using poverty as a means of income. Why don't you contact the administration here and see if they would grant you free advertizing?
I would suggest anyway that just taking a low cost holiday and shopping around for the best travel insurance and cheap economy flight then spending money locally and not just a hotel. Walk around and enjoy the culture is also a great idea to but money into the economy of a third world country.
I live in the Philippines like all ex-pats my money from my home land helps boost the economy, though I do my bit for poverty. I have no real need to as its my pension money that is spent here on my daily needs that is the most useful each day as each day it helps place rice on the table and pay peoples salary.
However I wish you the best if your intentions are honorable.

Hi,
I think what Babel fish is trying to say is maybe (correct me if I am wrong) you should prolly add a tad more NEWS content to your Story. That being said there are a lot of Grey areas in Citizen Journalism, so the definition of 'news content' may vary, the least we can do is use this platform to help build each others Content.
If I may suggest, maybe an article about volunteer work abroad, how its done, what it entails and who is doing it. If you use use A Broader View as the center piece and interview some of the volunteers, I am pretty sure you will have fulfilled the news content bit ("Tell me something new about something I care about.") and also bring some publicity to your cause.
I remain,
Indicati
