Childhood Poverty

The issue of childhood poverty has always been dear to me because of my own childhood experiences with it. If I can raise awareness to the issue in order to make the lives of other children better, then I consider that a worthwhile endeavor. Childhood poverty refers to the international disparity of children who grow up living on the most basic means. They often do not have an excellent chance at life because of their upbringing, location, and lack of access to proper education, healthcare, housing, nutrition, or water. Listed is the unicef link for more information and ways to assist.
