Hunger

Hunger in Africa.

Africa is easily the world's poorest continent, every third African is starving. Part of the starvation isnt just because of the continent being poor, some of it is because of the climate. Since it doesn't rain like it used to, crops are harder to maintain, which makes it hard to feed the continents people. Save the children is helping by, helping parents feed their children through farming and small businesses, preventing chronic malnutrition through breastfeeding support programs. The potential for these children should not go to a waste just because they were born in a crappy place, they could easily have a bright future. Save the children does a lot for not only Africa, but other countries as well. I have already shared the link for this website! 

I chose to talk about something like hunger because it is something that everyone hears about Africa. There are some people with the biggest hearts out there. A teenager is saving all the money she can to build a house for her parents, shes only 14. She takes 22 cents out of her 54 cent allowance. When she reaches 1 dollar she takes it to the bank. As of right now she has 37.09 cents. Things like this melt my heart to pieces, and I don't understand why people wouldn't want to help these people, they don't deserve to live like this.
