about children in need
With parents struggling to make ends meet on a few dollars a day, it is all too common for impoverished children to go to bed hungry. Their bare, calloused feet, dirt-caked faces and tattered clothes tell their story of struggle. For many, education is considered a luxury. Lacking such things as school supplies or uniforms can keep a poor child from attending school. Oftentimes, medical and dental care is unavailable or difficult to access, let alone afford. Simple ailments like diarrhea can be deadly when you are a poor child.
