Did you know that millions of children die of poverty every year? Children are abused every day, because of undeveloped economies. I think that poverty is a nightmare, and must be stopped, because it kills many innocent kids every day that are not capable to do anything about it. It does not allow young minds to reach their full potential.
What would you do, if you where a kid tangled in the middle of one great big poverty? Within the past years there has been a rapid and increasing amount of children that have been affected by the many conflicts over money, food, and life. Incidents have happened where poverty has gotten out of control and with devastating result of bombings, which have brutally killed, many separating families for life, and making a percentage of 45% of the victim’s children. Also an estimate of six million kids are living under extreme poverty , like having to fight for food , or against diseases without any medical attention, dying because of unsafe drinking water, and sleeping out in the extremely deadly cold temperature conditions, wearing only rags at the most. Millions of children are forced to do harmful and explosive work, are sexually abused, and are used for trafficking. This means that people are being sold, abused, and are not treated as a civilized, and live human.
Children all over the world are affected by poverty, and uncountable numbers, and uncountable amounts have died for this reason. Hundreds of volunteers are already raising money, and donating items to help improve the unfortunate situation, and anybody who is willing could be a part of this great effort to help as well. Uncountable amounts of people just like you and me die of starvation, illness, and because of conflict every year, and cannot do one thing about it, so next time you throw something away, or buy something that you don’t really know if you need, ask yourself if that really is right thing to do, when some people out there really need help.
