Have you ever dreamed of changing the world ? Making it a better place for everyone? If you could wave your hand and make all the hunger, disease, poverty, war and suffering go away, would you ? I think we have all wanted to be able to do this at some time. Unfortunately few people have the time or resources to make any great changes. Life isn’t fair and it probably never will be. We live in an imperfect world. By combining our resources though we can make a difference in the world. We won’t stamp out hunger, disease, poverty, war and suffering, but together we can make things a little better for some of the orphans of the world. If we each contribute some of our time and money we can feed, clothe and educate some of our planets most unfortunate children.
Our goal is to provide food, clothing, education and medical care for as many of these children as we possibly can. This will be accomplished by collecting donations from individuals and companies and distributing the funds to orphanages.
----------------------
It is estimated that Worldwide there approximately 143 million orphans.
every two seconds another child becomes an orphan.
42,000 new orphans every day
400,000 orphans die every year due to malnutrition
A lack of food is the orphan's biggest problem.
Every 90 seconds, another orphan dies from malnutrition.
The mission of Street Kids
is to make sure that as many orphans as possible
receive at least one nutritious meal per day.
And of course receive clothing, medical care and education.
----------------------
UNICEF says there are 143 million orphans worldwide. What they don't tell you is that the small orphanages in third world villages rarely if ever have any contact with the big charities like UNICEF, RED CROSS or others. Consequently these orphanages see little or no funding from outside their village. The large charities do not manage to give much money even to the orphanages they do help. These orphanages do not have money for things like internet access and bank accounts. The small amount they get from their village is barely enough to keep the kids alive much less to worry about proper nutrition, clean clothes or education.
We will be traveling through Asia and finding the orphanages in the small villages which do not receive funding. We will be helping them get in touch with different agencies to fund them. We need your help to temporarily fund these orphanages, I will be using some of my own funds but need much more to help these children. One dollar a month is not much, but it will help, if we can get enough people giving just $1 a month we can make a world of difference for these children.
We may also help in the event of natural disasters in whatever part of the world they occur, but the main focus will always be assisting orphanages and orphans.
