  1. can you imagine a world where creativity
  2. and future possibilities are completely snuffed out,
  3. Where we have failed to continue our space exploration,
  4. Where are medical advancements are no better than they were 30 years ago?
  5. A future where we're still reliant on fossil fuels
  6. in a future where we have failed to raise the standard of living for all
  7. Save the Children is currently combating this reality
  8. with its aggressive child focused initiatives.
  9. Children are the future incarnate and how we invest in them
  10. determines exactly where our future
  11. will be.
  12. I have researched
  13. Save the Children
  14. online
  15. and have found many sources of information.
  16. These sources ranged from newspaper articles, us census information
  17. and programs that save the Children currently
  18. leads.
  19. Now
  20. the future of the human race depends solely on how we invest in our Children
  21. but not just our Children and our homes.
  22. The Children that are across the globe that we often don't hear or see about
  23. Now. I know that's left you with a couple of questions.
  24. So allow me to explain exactly what I mean.
  25. We need organizations like Save the Children.
  26. Some people might say
  27. groups like Save the Children are doing the Lord's work
  28. Now we as 21st century people often find ourselves
  29. overwhelmed with responsibilities that are pertinent to our life
  30. due to this unfortunate reality,
  31. we need a steadfast organization
  32. like Save the Children
  33. that can make the impact that we cannot.
  34. Now when you think nationally
  35. There are roughly six million Children
  36. that are currently living in poverty.
  37. That can also be equated to 16%
  38. as of 2020
  39. according to the U. S. Census and the Casey Foundation.
  40. Now poverty is not the only issue
  41. that Children can face.
  42. What about childcare or even education,
  43. I'll have good news for you.
  44. Save the Children is involved in that endeavor as well.
  45. During the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina
  46. Save the Children quickly set up a child care center
  47. as they recognize that the catastrophe of this measure
  48. can impact Children for years to come
  49. in the years to follow.
  50. They actually set up
  51. a head start program
  52. in Sunflower Mississippi
  53. which they facilitate the operations of
  54. this further exemplifies
  55. the dedication
  56. that say the Children have to ensuring that Children receive a quality education
  57. on top of educating these Children.
  58. They also
  59. feed Children
  60. daily and ensure that they are protected
  61. in a safe environment.
  62. No,
  63. I've provided you two examples that are local to us
  64. so that I can explain to you what save the Children does
  65. not only does save the Children do this locally,
  66. but they actually do this
  67. in 100 different countries
  68. across the world.
  69. A few simple clicks and you can personally
  70. see this information
  71. for yourself
  72. on their website
  73. now that I've informed you about the kind of outreach
  74. that save the Children was involved in.
  75. I bet you're a bit curious as to how you can get involved
  76. depending on your situation,
  77. you may even be able to go full time.
  78. However currently
  79. skilled volunteers are needed.
  80. If you have specific skills that you think might help save the Children,
  81. I implore you to visit their website,
  82. you'd be surprised exactly how you can help.
  83. No,
  84. I'm not that naive.
  85. I know that everybody doesn't have this amount of time laying around
  86. to dedicate.
  87. That's okay. There's nothing wrong with that.
  88. You can still help Children
  89. With the constant rise
  90. in goods and services
  91. that we've been seeing after the COVID-19 pandemic.
  92. The most important support right now is actually financial support.
  93. Like I said with the cost of gas
  94. and food,
  95. things are skyrocketing.
  96. Now you may ask,
  97. what kind of donation are you asking?
  98. Well that's simple.
  99. Let's imagine that you're going out.
  100. You want to go see a movie and maybe have dinner before.
  101. What does that cost?
  102. Roughly? $50
  103. with that same amount.
  104. You can feed a starving child.
  105. Actually, you can feed three starving Children
  106. for 30 days.
  107. It's a lot of food for only $50.
  108. Additionally,
  109. you have the option to make a one
  110. time contribution or you can make a monthly contribution
  111. of whatever you decide
  112. now after making your contribution, it doesn't end there.
  113. You can also be rewarded for making this
  114. contribution.
  115. How you may ask
  116. on your taxes.
  117. Save the Children
  118. is a charitable non profit organization
  119. that allows you to claim any money that you donate to
  120. them on your tax expenditure at the end of the year.
  121. Now that you smile
  122. about saving on your taxes.
  123. You can also smile
  124. knowing that you have put food on the table for a child in need
  125. a book and a hand for Children learning to read
  126. and an education for a child that otherwise
  127. would not have it.
  128. After hearing
  129. about the wonderful work that save the Children is involved in
  130. how you can get active
  131. or facilitate their financial future,
  132. I hope that you can find it in your heart
  133. to make a contribution of your time
  134. or maybe even some money
  135. You can actually offer as little as $10.
  136. So please
  137. remember
  138. the Children
  139. or our future
  140. and they are direct
  141. reflection
  142. of where we will be
  143. in the years to come.
