Children in Poverty
Posted on 26. Nov, 2009 in Featured, Misc
There are so many unprivileged children in the world… These children have to grow up in terrible conditions. They suffer from violence, diseases and poverty. They have to fight for their lives. If you can help these children anyhow - do it.

I’m so ashamed to see that so few people care about such things. It seems that the entire world is willing to turn a blind eye when it is not their problem. What is worse, is that for those who ARE willing to do something to contribute, do not really know HOW to do it EFFECTIVELY.
Part of the problem is a lack of public awareness as to how to help, and part of the problem are the dishonest people/organizations who try to take advantage of philanthropists, which, in turn, makes any normal person weary of opening their pocketbook.
I’m glad to see you care.

I’m so moved by recent trip to India. It’s awful to see children’s going to school, walking miles barefoot in the burning hot sun. I was told it’s only normal for them to be like that. They can afford shoes but they choose not to. I don’t believe this. I can afford LV & Gucci, so why don’t I return favour by giving not Nike’s & Adidas, but simple Bata shoes. Join me please to help our sisters and brothers. Contact me at egofame@gmail.com. Because YOU CAN !!!!
