The Global Fund for Children: http://www.globalfundforchildren.org/
The Global Fund for Children is an organization that envisions all children being valuable and sympathetic citizens of a global community. Global Fund for Children strives to provide the tools for children to have self-respect and pride that is necessary for future growth. They work with creative community based organizations and the vulnerable around the world. The issue that caught my attention from the newsletter was child labor. It is estimated that 215 million children are involved in child labor around the world.
Hi Crystal, it is sad that a lot of children have to work to support their families. However, I can remember my grandmother talk about how they use to pick cotton and other crop when she was younger. Sometimes, it is a way of life for many and they realyy do not see it as a problem, but we know that today there are many other things that children need to be engaged in.
