Ways To Help
Fact 1: Millions of families live on less than $1 a day.
Living on only a couple dollars a day...
Rowena Canales is holding one of her nine children. Her family lives in the small shack which is pictured behind her.
Rowena's husband is a farmer. The family of 11 lives on less than $1.60 a day. With very little money, her children's future seem bleak.
Open the doors of opportunity and
give her children hope for a better future.
Fact 2: 1.5 million children live on the streets, many work or beg to survive.
Often times you will find children begging along the streets of Manila. Many are asking for food so they can fill their empty stomachs.
Many who watch this tend to ignore the kids fearing that giving one food will bring dozens of children at their feet.
These kids have no future... but you can give them hope for one.
Fact 3: More than a third of children drop out of school by the sixth grade.
Many families are faced with one thing: provide their child with an education or live without basic necessities for the rest of the family.
With most families living on less that $1 a day, this can be a tough decision.
Many children want to continue through school... they just don't have the opportunity.
