"We" shouldn't really do a darned thing. For cultural/religious reasons those countries have placed themselves in that position; it is not our place to "fix" it for them.
Sending money and food isn't really the answer, either; there have been too many cases of money and food being diverted for selfish reasons or for resale on the grey/black markets. Only education will help them out of a bad situation.
