Poverty 1. Comments

Hello, this (really really) hurt to read... and im sure it hurt even more to write... the problem we have here, is that very often there are unscrupulous individuals stealing quite a bit off of whatever donations we try to help with. its so frustrating and in some countries we try to help the governments just keep the majority, or so we are told. each year we have massive events supported by celebrities, showing heartbreaking stories of things that go on worldwide and most of our population give up time money and do what they can. some shave their heads or beards or climb a mountain to gain sponsorship our little island the (uk) does actually have many people in our own neighbourhoods living well below the poverty line, children who have never eaten a fresh vegetable, either as their parents cant afford, or just because they never had them, a chain reaction. many who cannot afford to their heating on in the winter, it is not unheard of for some pensioners to die from the cold..... We do try our best and their is a wholehearted attempt to try and ease the lives of people that we do genuinely care for.... thanks karen
