Somalia is facing poverty and hunger like never before.

Somalia's humanitarian crisis has surged due to historic weather changes causing massive drought and a 20-year insurgency by al Qaeda. The United Nations Children's Fund says more than 500,000 kids could die by the middle of this year unless urgent action is taken.

Currently, most children admitted to Somalia's hospitals don't make it because families don't have the means to make it to medical facilities in time for life-saving medical care.

Abdi Eye, a Board member from the Amoud foundation, a Texas-based non-profit that has helped communities in the "Horn Of Africa" for over 22 years joined Roland Martin on #RMU to discuss this global crisis.
